Hightower Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Can anybody here read Latin pretty fluently? Just want an acurate translation, not s Google/BabbleFish translation. Thanks,

tech_guy Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Est piscis piscis illac quoniam EGO postulo ut laboro syrma is?
Hightower Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 See, the reason I posted up is because I know no latin, yet you are replying in latin! Anyhow, according to Google Translate it says that X-13 may help me - can you read/write latin then or was that a translate?
tech_guy Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 I just copied the latin off our school badge....

Anyhow, according to Google Translate it says that X-13 may help me - can you read/write latin then or was that a translate? That was a translate. Google translate is pretty good with latin. Est piscis piscis illac quoniam EGO postulo ut laboro syrma is? There is the fish of the fish over there because I need to ROBE WITH A TRAIN to work it? Forget I said anything... Auto translate sucks.
bossman Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 @Hightower: @X-13: Roughly translated means "I may be able to help you" @tech_guy: Roughly says something about "eating fish as he demands work" I could be wrong as it is years since I was forced to do Latin.
bossman Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 @Hightower: I have just located a pretty decent Latin translator for you to use its here: Latin to English Translation You have to work out the words a little but is very good.
Hightower Posted February 18, 2011 Author Posted February 18, 2011 Google translate is pretty close to what I have, which means mine is either correct or not too far wrong. Thing is, when I'm inking myself up with it it really needs to be right so would be chuffed if someone could help me.
JJonas Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Can it handle 'my hovercraft is full of eels'?
LosOjos Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Google translate is pretty close to what I have, which means mine is either correct or not too far wrong. Thing is, when I'm inking myself up with it it really needs to be right so would be chuffed if someone could help me. I can't speak/read/write latin at all, however you might have more luck getting a response if you said what it was you want translating?
tech_guy Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Well according to the translators our school motto is something to do with toilet training fish!?
Andrew_C Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 Shame I didn't see this before I scarpered for 1/2 term. Providing it isn't TOO rude, I could have asked one of our Latin teachers. Too late now, unless you can wait a week. 1
tech_guy Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 My daughter is doing A Level Latin and is one of the top students - I can ask her for you if you PM the phrase. 1
Hightower Posted February 19, 2011 Author Posted February 19, 2011 I didn't want to post the phrase up - I wanted to see who could actually do the job first @tech_guy: I'll PM you but the phrase is at work so it'll be next week now. @Andrew_C: I can wait a week and I will PM you too next week.
Hightower Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 Won a place in a cup final yesterday, so today I'm a little rough - put in a days holiday so I will PM you both tomorrow instead now
