Help Wanted: Latin Expert Needed

Unconventional spelling for a well-known USMC slogan. This is going to be made into a ring.

Yes, it’s those three words you’ve always hoped to see! It’s not a dead language if we still use it, right? I am looking to hire a Latin Geek for the occasional translation of mottos and stuff. Sometimes I will need help with grammar, also guidance in finding inspiration and classical references. Less frequently I will need help translating my poetry into Latin.

Much like the days of yore, I can pay you in precious materials. I envision an exchange of my work for some of your knowledge. However, if you prefer, I can pay you like a Roman soldier and offer you some salt. Your choice.

Where there are bees, honey.
Ok, so this is Old French and not Latin, but it's still a sweet sentiment for a posey ring: You Have a Loyal Friend.

 

 

 

 

Translation: "Where Futures Begin." This is how I etch designs onto copper, in this case a piece up upcycled roofing material.
