Question
Hello Maria
I would be very grateful if you could tell me the correct translation for "partner" or "companion" in a romantic sense. I would like to name a star and would like it to read my fiance's name and then "celestial companion" in latin. I believe celestial is caelestis.
Thank you so much
Warm Regards
Sarah
Hello,
“celestial companion/partner” in the sense you are looking for can be translated only as “caelestis comes” where COMES can mean just "partner" or "companion" in a romantic sense.
Best regards,
Maria
______________________________________
CAELESTIS (nominative masculine agreed with COMES) = celestial
COMES ((nominative, 3rd.declension)= companion/ partner
