Thread: Any Greek, or Latin speakers?

    Any Greek, or Latin speakers?

    I know some one here speaks Greek, as for Latin?
    I need the translation for, without quotes:
    "Going forth by day"
    I came up with some results from translators on the web, but want to be sure.
    Thanks much, guys.

    been a while since i used it but....

    προς τα εμπρός με μερα (προς τα εμπρός (to go forwards), με (with), μερα (Morning/Day) Phoenetic pronunciation;
    pros ta emprós meh méra)

    not sure whether it's imera (
    μερα prefaced with η (I) should be correct either way as day is a noun
    ) :salute:

    Nice going Matt!

    Hi Piglet - please give me the context in which you intend to use the phrase.

    Very often for slogans or motif, we use an older grammatical approach.
    My daughter has a university degree in both ancient and modern Greek and makes a fair pass with latin also.

    She'd be only too pleased.

    If you like, PM me.

    Best Regards
    Nigel

    Piglet..... Nigel, Dimus and I (Amongst others) are competent Greek Speakers, well maybe not so competent these days in my case... but if you ever need help one of us will be able to assist :salute:

    Thanks guys!
    The contex would be as a phrase, say, on a sign over a door or maybe a tomb. This is what I came up with.
