Question
I wish to have a silver pan engraved--a gift for a good friend.  Can you give me the Latin for
"Loyal friend always."  Thank you. Kerry Gough

Answer
Hello,

Here’s the translation of “Loyal friend always” :

-“Amicus semper  fidelis”, if ‘friend’ refers to a male person.

-“Amica semper fidelis”, if ‘friend’ refers to a female person.


Best,
Maria
