טקסט מקורי - לטינית - genibus nititor canis

Has any of you guys got an idea

about the meaning of this quote (if ever it is one). I don't (but I'm not Latin expert either)

CC: goncin Porfyhr Xini

geníbus nitor = to be down on oneself's knee...
canis = dog...

...

I guess that the first word is misspelled and the right quotation should be:

"Genius nititio canis"
'A wise man strikes a dog with the fur'

i.e. If you should have success lick a**.

Makes that sense?

thank you for yours answers

Porfyhr, I don't think that's right.

Genibus nitor is an expression.

It's "The dog on his knees" in my opinion.


Charisgre?

No problem to find the answer on Google. :
"Kneel down before me dog."

I did a translation and pointed to the fact that it could be misspelled with an extra b.
I supposed the picture had something to do with the quotation.

Anyhow I did a translation that I do not think is wrong.

canis is Nominativusor Vocativus, genibus - on knees, and nitito is an imperative form. So this could be
Get down (nitito) on you knees, dog
