Question
Hi there, could you translate the phrase " My Family, My Life" pertaining to my love for my family, thankyou for your time and effort.
Answer
Hello,
The phrase "My Family, My Life" pertaining to your love for your family translates as “Mea Familia, Mea Vita” or with a different word order ”Mea Familia, Vita Mea”.
Best regards,
Maria
___________________________________________________
Note that:
-My = MEA (nominative feminine of MEUS, agreed with FAMILIA)
-family = FAMILIA (nominative feminine, 1st.declension)
-my = MEA (nominative feminine of MEUS, agreed with VITA)
-life = VITA (nominative feminine, 1st.declension).
Latin word order can be variable simply because Latin is an inflected language where syntactical relationships are indicated by the endings, not by the order of the words.
