I'm in first year Latin honors. I only know one term of Latin. How do you say May the force be with you in Latin, like Star Wars?
And if you can't, please tell me so I can stop looking.

I don't want to swamp him with work, but guild member Magister Texas teaches latin, he may be of some assistance.

malince "sit vis vobiscum," I think. depends on the person you're referring at....if you say it to a group..may the force be with all of you, you need plural: sit vis vobiscum. , but if you say it to one you need singular: sit vis tecum.I hope this helped you mrgreen

Schokomanianna malince "sit vis vobiscum," I think. depends on the person you're referring at....if you say it to a group..may the force be with all of you, you need plural: sit vis vobiscum. , but if you say it to one you need singular: sit vis tecum.I hope this helped you mrgreen vis tecum doesn't have the lovely alliteration of vis vobiscum D: if I ever use this phrase I'll be sure to address more than one person. xD

I concur: vis sit vobiscum gets the sense of the words whle maintaining the solemnity of a oracular quotation; it scans like a spondaic line, as well there is the sibilant alliteration of hte "S's" and the assonant repetition of the "W's" ( v's) .

I also have a question on a sentence in latin. How would one say "Make it epic"? It's a slogan of a friend of mine who is always overly flambouyant and enjoys making a show out of everything. I happen to have a liking towards it too mrgreen
