Je n'ai pas trouvé la traduction
La devise à traduire en latin est:
" Contrôle ta passion ! "
Merci |

| | Je pense que ce doit être quelque chose comme "studium tuum modera!", mais je ne suis pas expert en latin. J'ai néanmoins vérifié avec un dictionnaire, et j'ai tenu compte des déclinaisons à employer (accusatif pour "ta passion) ainsi que du mode verbal (impératif) ainsi que de la syntaxe latine (COD avant le verbe).
Je vais cependant fournir une traduction-relais en anglais à nos experts en latin, de façon à ce qu'ils confirment (ou infirment) ma traduction.

Hi dear experts in Latin, this text in French means "Master your passion!", is the translation I posted (above in bold itallic) right?
Thanks a lot! CC: Efylove Aneta B. |

| | Hello Francky!
Almost right, dear, almost.
Imperative from "moderari" is "moderare" (not "modera", because it is so-called "verbum deponens"
The rest is fine, but I'm wondering what "passion" expresses here.
"studium" means: passion (like hobby, mainly "love to learning" , fondness, enthusiasm...
It has got rather a positive meaning.
Since I have to control the passion, in my opinion the feeling has got rather a negative meaning. So I myself would use here a word "cupiditas" or even "libido" |

| | Wow! The context was really needed here.
I don't know if "moderari" is a proper verb here.
Maybe:
"Percipe studium tuum"?
I'm still not sure what do you mean by "master" here. We can master the language or some knowledge, but passion? |
