Question
Hi there Im doing a painting for a friend,An I was just wondering what "Loyalty is Forever" in latin?
Thanks.

Answer
Hello,

Here’s the translation of “Loyalty is Forever”:

-“Fides in aeternum” as well as “Est fides in aeternum”.

I do hope this is for a painting, not for a tattoo I really don’t like, as I wrote in my ‘Instructions to Questioner’ which appear on your "Ask a question page”.

So I always reject questions regarding tattoos and now I hope that you did not cheat me, didn't? [Honesty/loyalty is forever, isn't it?]

Bye,
Maria
