Since I'm here I obviously need help...

How do you translate:

"Follow your dreams. Or atleast give it a try/shot/do your best. Beware of the non-dreamers."

Be my guest and make it sound a bit better since I translated that directly from swedish...

Thanks!

Somnia sequere. Saltem conatum habe. Pro virile parte fac.
Cave illos qui non somniant.


Thanks George! But you wrote 4 sentences, and I had only written 3?

I broke "Or atleast give it a try/shot/do your best" into two sentences.
Or at least give it a try.
Do your best.

Ah, so Saltem conatum habe means "Or atleast give it a try"? I see.
Thanks!

I really appreciate you taking your time to help the people on here, it's very kind of you. How did you learn to speak latin so well? I envy you!
So, If I'm not being to much of a trouble... how do you say

"You always have a choice. Life doesn't get any better than you make it yourself"?

No trouble, Eirene, I do this for fun.

I took Latin for four years in high school and also took some courses in
college. I was raised Catholic back in the day when many of the services
were in Latin.

I see, George. I have a secret dream of learning latin, but my grammar in any language is terrible. The only language I managed to learn somewhat good (other than my native one) is english. But rather than thanking my teachers back in school, all the english spoken tv shows and music should be the one taking credit for my english skills...
But thanks again, George! As I said, really appreciate it! Smile
