If a dev reads this and this is supposed to appear in game, please let us know what you want to say so we can patch it for you :D

Hahahahaha. :ermm:

We're on it.

 

You mean "we're on it" as in you're fixing the translation, or "we're on it" is what you want us to tell you to say in latin? :ermm:

Sweet. I found a bug on an unreleased game. My very first!

We're fixing it.

It looks like it was an automagic English -> Latin translation of "where none can follow." From using InterTran it results in "qua nullus can insisto."

The plot thickens.

Kudos to LostStraw. Should get a cameo in the game... maybe future dlc?

I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God.

So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me?

Nothing personal. It's just revenge.

I'm now vaguely embarrassed, as it seems likely potere came from me. It's modern Italian, and is only occasionally used in dog Latin.

 

Possum/ posse is correct. I suspect something like "qua nemo insisto posse" is what is being looked for. I haven't done latin for ten years and it's near 1 am, so take with salt.

Possum is irregular. I think it should be "Qua nullus sequi potest".

 

nullus = masc. nom. sing.

potest = 3rd person sing. pres. indicative

sequi = (complimentary) pres. infinitive

 

But I'm following up with a friend who has an MA in Latin. :(

"Romanes Eunt Domus? People called Romanes they go the house?"

Listen to my home-made recordings (some original songs, some not): http://www.youtube.c...low=grid&view=0

I think Sawyer should make Rorie write it 100 times on AP website.

Looks like I was a bit off:

 

Quo nemo sequi potest instead of Qua nullus sequi potest.

 

The mystery has been solved w00tlez.

I took college level Latin for a year. It gave me such a headache.

"Your Job is not to die for your country, but set a man on fire, and take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."

If you want to use insisto, insistere, it would be "Qua nemo insistere potest." Literally "Where no one can follow." You could also say "Qua nulli insistere possunt" if you want it to be "where none can follow"

 

If you want to say "where none may follow," use the impersonal verb licet and the put "nemo" or "nullus" into the dative case.

 

You can always toy around with it to get something that sounds nicer. Latin is a very flexible language.

 

Edit: I'd only really use "nullus" if you wanted plural (none). If you're going with singular (no one), use nemo.
