"se dare" = to appear, to come up, to enter

Are you sure, Alex, you have meant this?

Isn't "se dedit" the 3rd singular person of verb "se dedere"?

Oh... It may come from both "se dare" and "se dedere", but different tenses, right?

Do you think we should use a less ambiguous verb?

Yes, you'd better look for another expression.

Hi Alex,
What happened? No ideas?

What about "Victor numquam deditionem facit"
or Victor numquam in deditionem venire" or "Victor numquam arma ponit"?

So sorry Aneta! I completely forgot to review this translation

Anyway I like your last suggestion, i.e. "Victor numquam arma ponit". Do you think we should explain in the remarks field the reasons of such translation? In the source text "arms" are not mentioned...

Of course, Alex, you may leave a note there that it is an idiomatic expression in Latin, which literally means : "A winner never puts his arms/weapon out".
