Am I correct in saying “Opera Magna Meis” is the translation for “My Greatest Works”? I am trying to have an engraving done on a necklace for my daughter who is about to give birth to her second child. Thank-you for your help.

@Susan G,
I can't, but you might tag this as Latin.

Thank-you so much George. May I ask why you use Optima instead of Magna?

@Susan G,
You are right to question Optima. It translates to
"best". "Greatest" is translated by Maxima.

So, Opera Maxima Mea

Magna -> Great
Maiora -> Greater
Maxima -> Greatest

I thought of one more thing now. What does “Great Legacy” translate to? It would be “Magnus” because it is singular wouldn’t it?
