Ancient Languages - Translation for tattoo.


Expert: Maria - 6/29/2009

Question
I am trying to get the translation for "to thyself be true" and am having difficulty as different websites give me different translations, this is for a tattoo so I need it translated 100% correct. The variations I have found are "esto tibi ipsi fidelis" "tibi ipsi esto fidelis" and "tibi ipsi fidelis esto" Please help me with the correct version.

Many thanks in advance.

Answer
Unfortunately you did not pay attention to  what  I wrote  in my ‘Instructions to Questioner’ which appear on your "Ask a question page" where you can read:
"No homework questions please nor TATTOOS....."
So, I’m sorry, but I do not want to help you with this question  just because  I don't like tattoos and then, as  a volunteer  expert of a 100% FREE  site, I obviously can choose to decline translating any phrase / word  for this purpose.

Bye,
Maria
