Hi,

Anybody know Latin at all? I need the phrases 'sleep when you're dead' and 'the world is yours' translated to proper Latin if anyone could do that? I've tried using the internet translators but I don't 100% trust them! Any help appreciated, cheers.

It is for a tattoo, but not for mine. Doing some research for a mate without t'internet - although telling him to get 'I love donkey sex' on his arm could be amusing...

Ha, I remember those books, although the only things I remember are Metella est in cucina and canem est in atrium.. I think. Something to do with mother being in the kitchen and the dog being in the hallway..

Gallea est omnes in parte divisa tres.

The first line in Latin for Today - Book 3 (and that is about as far as my Classical Education wen)t.

Did it not mean "Mother's in the kitchen and dad is in the dog-house"?
