Ludovicus 5 Report post Posted April 24, 2011 "Somniate in voce alta," if you are speaking to more than one person. Otherwise "Somnia in voce alta." Latin has an economy of words. Especially for proverbs and adages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhostOfClayton 25 Report post Posted April 24, 2011 (edited) Latin has an economy of words. Especially for proverbs and adages. Is there a difference between the Latin words for 'sleep' and 'dream'? Edited April 24, 2011 by GhostOfClayton Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ludovicus 5 Report post Posted April 25, 2011 (edited) "Sleep" and "dream" can be nouns or verbs. As verbs: To sleep is "dormire." To dream is "somniare" As nouns: the noun sleep is "somnus." the noun dream is "somnium". Edited April 25, 2011 by Ludovicus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoJobRob 0 Report post Posted December 15, 2011 I have a request. I would greatly appreciate a translation of this: "God speaks to those who listen." I used this link to come up with "Deus loquitur audientibus", though I have no idea if it is correct. http://www.stars21.com/translator/english_to_latin.html Anyway, I found this thread while searching for an existing thread for translations. I'm wanting translations for the noun forms of "Strength" and "Honor", yes, like in Gladiator. LOL The link I posted gave me: Strength - robur (ROBVR) Honor - honorem (HONOREM) Ancient Latin was all caps, right? Reason I ask is that I'm trying to come up with a tattoo idea. LOL Thanks.
