Latin translation

[bekib86]

Can anyone speak Latin? Tried the online conversion sites and they all come up half English still! Thanks x

Well a lot of English does come from Latin. What are you trying to translate?

Ah, the famous quote by Jamus Deanus.
How about:
"Somnium tanquam vos mos ago pro infinitio , ago ut sententia vos mos intereo hodie."

I knwo very little Latin apart from Amo, amas, amat, amamus, amatis, amant...and how to say table, oh table in Latin.
I used one of the online translators.The reason it didn't work for you is that it wouldn't recognise the contraction "you'll", so i replaced it with 'you will' or ' you shall'. I also replaced forever by 'for eternity' as it didn't seem to be able to translate 'forever'.
However, although mine looked like good Latin it may not be correct for when i translated it back to English I didn't quite get back to where we started from.
You really need a Latin teacher.
