सरुको हरफ - Latin - “Lege, lege, relege, labora et invenies”

Hi Aneta, what is "invenius"?, I mean which form is it? I know "labora" is an imperative form from verb laborare, but I had a look to my online dictionary and couldn't find what it is about (except verb "invenio", I don't see...)
This is simple curiosity, no emergency at all!

Thanks!

Dear Franck, "invenius" isn't a verb, it is an adjective, neutral in a comparative form or it can be also an adverb, also in a comparative form (here it is more possible).

But I am not sure whether it shouldn't be imperative "inveni" in here. It would make more sense then...

Thanks aneta!


I couldn't find "invenius" in my online dictionary ( http://www.prima-elementa.fr/Dico.htm )

I would rather think, as you said, to an imperative form, same as for "lege", "relege" and "labora", you're right. Moreover this is the way it is expressed in the translation into B.Portuguese Lilian did from this text.

Well, I am not sure, but it can be also adverb in a positive degree. I will check it in my dictionary after my coming back, ok? Because I don't remember it exactly.
I'm comig back today late evening

Well, Francky, I didn't find the word in my dictionary too , but found some Latin texts in the net with this word and I am sure it is an adjective or adverb just like I typed above.

For example:
"...dolus invenius est in ore eius"
what I would translate: "In his mouth the deceit is easy(possible) to find"

!!! But in this case we have an letter mistake in the text.
The whole sentence should be:
"ORA, LEGE, LEGE, LEGE, RELEGE, LABORA ET INVENIES" (the motto of the Mutus Liber of 1677) - "Pray, Read, Read, Read, Read Again and You Shall Find". ...

Thanks for the search and the edit, Aneta!

You're welcome. It is my job here...
