Translation
English

Translated by AspieBrain
Target language: English

Morality tortures men
Remarks about the translation
ethos = moral laws, morality
antropus (I assume it must be the plural form as the correct would be anthropous or antropou) = of man, of men, men
daimos = suffering, torture
ethos -> tortures -> men = morality tortures men or men suffer from the laws of morality

μήπως θα μπορούσες να το γράψεις με ελληνικούς χαρακτήρες? Με την λέξη "daimus" τι εννοείς;
καλημέρα!

Can not be "is torturing", that would imply a short action that takes place in the present. And the initial text is actually a saying, expresses maybe a general truth, the simple present is correct used in the English translation.
