Please translate (English to Latin)?

Please translate "ROMANS GO HOME!" from English to Latin!

Whoever has it wrong gets his balls cut off!

Have a nice day! ;)

If that doesn't sound familiar and you never heard of Monty Python:

    It's 'Romani ite domum'.

    And I don't have any since I'm female, but thanks for the sentiment!

    Yes, I know all the Monty Python. I was around when they were new!

    Romani Ite Domum Translation

  • vor 1 Jahrzehnt

    Romani, ite domum!

    And 'domum' is in the accusative case, not the locative as John Cleese insists.

    Motion towards - accusative

    stationary place (certain words only) - locative

    Now, go and cut John Cleese's balls off.

    Morporc - thank you very much indeed for that link. Excellent stuff. You are quite right about the joke running deep; the Monty Python crew were mostly oxbridge types whose gags could be interpreted on more levels than scripture!

    Don't suppose you have a similar link for the dative in Old Irish, by any chance?

    Cleese joke in calling Domum a locative actually goes very deep indeed. You probably need to know Latin to even understand it.

    "Romani domum ite" (imperative) or "Romani domum eant" (subjunctive), although I'm not sure the Romans (or any of their subjects) would actually have voiced that thought that way. Anyway, nil perdendum!
