| | Hi Jair,
"illuminate" is a transitive verb, therefore we'll need an object here.
illuminates you? |

| | I think "shines" is fine, it doesn't make less sense than in Danish, since also in Danish it sound a bit awkward |
| | 21 Július 2011 19:42 |
| | Perhaps "...any shiny day,..." would fit |

"som lyser" might be a metaphor for the dawning... (which dawns) |

| | It's a rather akward translation to Danish of the Latin proverb "Omnem crede diem tibi deluxisse supremum" which literally does actually mean something like "Believe that each day that shines to you is your last one".
I do, however, believe that pias is right that the meaning of this is: "Know that each day that dawns may be your last". Either way, I think that both the literal and the non-literal translation should be mentioned.

| | What about this?
"Consider each day that dawns as the last for you." CC: pias |

| gamineHozzászólások száma: 4611 | Sorry to be soo late. Don't have much time free as I have to take care of my friens young kids.
Anita may be right.
I think that it can be understood like this too:
'Believe that each day which shines to you(which make you happy)is your last'.

| gamineHozzászólások száma: 4611 | Just noticed That Anita has proposed the same proposal as I have. But still like 'which make you happy'.
Anita, pls. |

| piasHozzászólások száma: 8113 | Awww, I like your proposal too Lene
Agree with Anita that the non-literal translation(s) should be mentioned too, maybe as a note. |

| | Thank you girls
I've placed the non-literal version in the remarks. |

| | I guess the Latin translation of this phrase is the one Anita wrote in her first message, isn't it?
So I think she deserves those points |
