"Det guderne elsker mest tager de først tilbage" | Remarks about the translation | Det er en sætning der skal bruges til en tattovering jeg skal have lavet om min lillebror der døde som 9 årig. Fandt en der hed: Quem di diligunt adolescens moritur. Der betød: den, som guderne elsker, dør ung. Men synes den var for voldsom, håber i kan hjælpe mig. |

Is this line correct?
Shouldn't it be:
" Hvem guderne elsker mest, ..."
CC: Bamsa gamine | | | 24 March 2010 22:19 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Hi Lilian. No, it's written "Det" which means "What".
Otherwise it should have been: "Den". Of course it can be a spelling error and I know it's sounds strange. If you think we should correct it, I can do it.
| | | 24 March 2010 22:54 | | | If it refers to a person, the correct word to use is "who" or "the one", right? | | | 24 March 2010 23:00 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | It's surely is, but you know, we Danes, express ourselves very often in a strange way. I'll edit.
Thanks for our help, as usual. | | | 24 March 2010 23:14 | | | Sorry if the disception was a bit confusing..
But i don't know if i want it to refer only to my brother, but more general in life - so the correct therm to use in english would be "what".
It would be great if one of you guys could help me out. | | | 24 March 2010 23:03 | | gamineNumber of messages: 4611 | Can't edit. Can you do it, please? "Den" instead of "Det". | | | 24 March 2010 23:09 | | | Trykflasken,
