Likewise "Arma Virumque cano" which is the opening line of Virgil's Aeneid (Latin IV). I am sure that there are also memorable lines from various works of Cicero (Latin III) although his syntax is quite complicated. Of course, the translator's friend is a Latin to English dictionary. The traditional Catholic's friend is the St. Joseph's Daily Missal.
May God bless you and yours!
Thank you, BlackElk for the brief trip down memory lane.
It isn’t surprising to find that Latin is what they call a dead language, although it is still plenty useful, and I think the unusual sentence arrangement is what did it in.
Subject, object, predicate seems strange and was difficult for me. I admit I love the English language. For me, it has everything, if used properly.
Thanks again.
P.S. It wasn’t simple for me.
