Hi, and I came up with this game just for fun, and to see how many people in AG know different languages.
The object of the game is to get the top of the leaderboard, but to do that you have to translate a sentence I have given you; but wait, it gets trickier. The sentence given will not be in English, but in Latin. You must change it into another language, any language you want as long as it hasn't been used already for the same sentence. You can look at other sentences; that way, you don't necessarily have to know Latin. You may not post the translation in English.
If you use a translating machine or copy someone else's sentence, then you are kicked out of that round. Do it three times, and you'll be kicked out permanently.
My sentences will be just for fun. If I have a mistake, please point it out to me, however, they will usually be small. I may be a Grammar Nazi in English, but in Latin, well, my grammar sucks.
A round ends when I want it to end, then I will post a new sentence.
Unfortunately, I only know Latin and English; thus, I will be forced to use a translating machine to ascertain that your sentence is correct. Therefore, I request that you tell me what language your sentence has translated to in. At the end of each round, I will give the points earned, and tell everyone the English translation.
I don't expect many people to join, but it'll still be fun...
Here is your sentence:
"Sic, may hec incoho."
*sigh* Does anyone know something that would fit there better than "incoho"? I know that it doesn't fit perfectly...
Anyway, yeah, anyone who wants to join can.

That sucks dude. I hate it when my teachers are incompetent. I'm sure "meus" means "my".
Anyway, thanks for participating.

All I know in Latin is this.

Pie lesu domine dona eis requiem. Then again I have sung quite a few songs with latin so I know more words but not nearly all of their meanings.

Pie lesu domine dona eis requiem.

Bonus, pius femina vitualamen sileo, Ego reputo?
Good, holy woman offering rest, I think?
Ah...so some people do speak Latin other than me, and, I guess Firefox. xP
