I've become a sucker for Latin. It's hands down the most beautiful and wisest of the languages, and of course, all the romance languages are based in it (i.e. french, italian, etc.)
I thought I'd give a few phrases that sound awesome and have really cool meanings too.
First off:
Age Quod Agis = Do what you do well/Be present in what you are doing
Adeste Fideles = Be present, faithful ones
Cui Peccare Licet Peccat Minus = One who is allowed to sin, sins less
Then there's:
Dum Spiro, Spero = While I breathe, I hope
Dum Vita Est Spes Est = While there is life, there is hope
Esto Perpetua = Be thou forever/Endure forever/Let it be perpetual
And even more:
A Cruce Salus = Salvation from the Cross/From the Cross, comes salvation
Domine, Dirige Nos = Lord, direct us/Lord guide us
Deus Absconditus = God who is hidden
Finally:
Sic Transit Gloria = Glory fades (Rushmore/Brand New fans? Anyone?)
Nil Desperandum = Never despair
There you go. This concludes your first Latin lesson. Consummatum Est (It is finished).
