Answer
Hi Pasi,

here’s the Latin phrase for “Without love, I'm nothing”:

“Sine amore, nihil sum”

or with a different word order which in Latin can be variable:

“Nihil sine amore sum”.

Best regards,

______________________________________________

Please note that:

-Without = SINE ( preposition which takes the ablative case)

-love = AMORE (ablative of AMOR, 3rd.declension)

-I'm = SUM

-nothing = NIHIL (nominative neuter)
