semper conjuncto ad aeternis? Explanation: Cod Latin to kick off the first half! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 mins (2008-03-29 17:12:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- No "J" in latin I think there coniuncto? "Ad" takes the accusative, but what's "eternity"? |

semper coniuncti in aeternum Explanation: "In aeternum" is much more common, the kind of expression a Latin would use. And I prefer to use an adjective or "past participle", coniuncti, rather than "conjuctim", ad adverb, since I suppose it is a couple of lovers, and coniuncti would express the fact that they are united, whereas conjuctim would express that they do things jointly. Examples of use on Internet: , Fas In Aeternum, Fas Ite In Aeternum Adoremus in Aeternum Sanctissimum Sacramentum. In te, Domine, speravi: non confundar in aeternum -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 days20 hrs (2008-04-01 13:01:48 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Regarding the "j", it is indifferent to put "j" or "i". The "j" was introduced on Reinassance, nisi fallor, and is not classical, Reference: http://www.answers.com/topic/in-aeternum Reference: http://www.yourdictionary.com/in-aeternum |
