Question
i wanted to scare my friends next hollwen, by saying "Keep me from hell" but i suddenly relized that i dont how you say it in latin, can you help me in this?

Answer
Hello,

“Keep me from hell” can be translated into Latin as follows:

“Me a Tartaro defende”, if ‘keep‘ refers to a 2nd person singular.

“Me a Tartaro defendite”, if ‘keep ‘ refers to a 2nd person plural.

I must however point out that this phrase is a supplication, not a threat.

Bye,
Maria
