Hi all, sorry to just barge right in, but I'm trying to get something translated for a tattoo I'm going to have, as a sort of honour thing for my little sister, she has a complete bum of a boyfriend and I want to tell her I will be there for her, always.
Id like it in Latin so obviously it would be 'our' thing and leave her bum of a man completely in the dark.
Anyway what I'm after is something simple like "Brother, Sister, Forever"
Or "Sister I'll always be there", " Brother and sister for eternity" Something like that? I know you will be much better at language than me so if you have any ideas I would really appreciate it.
Thankyou
Paul
"Semper Frater et Soror" (that means "Brother and Sister Forever"). But how about "Semper frater fidelis" which means "4ever steadfast/trustworthy/reliable/true brother"? The 2nd one is a lot more authentically Latin. (Question: how's your wife gonna react to that?

)
