how would i say "king of the skies" in latin? I have looked every where and have found (rex regis caeli) is that even close and if so how do i say "the" and "of"
any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Latin is an inflected language, so as the sound of a word changes so does its meaning (eg Sky=Caelum, of the Sky=Caeli). There is no the or a in latin, the Romans did without.
Rex Caeli = King of the sky
or
Rex Caelorum = King of the Skies
note: plural use of Sky in latin is rare (well I haven't seen it yet) so consider using the singular.
