Umseting - Portugisiskt-Latín - Carrego tantos mistérios quanto o oceano......

Hello Sweety, can I ask you a bridge once again?

CC: Sweet Dreams

Before Sweety gives me a bridge, one remark of mine, dear goncin:

Tantum (+ gen) quantum (+ gen) fero...

"I carry with me as many mysteries as the ocean...

I carry with me the mysteries of the ocean."

Aneta,

The first phrase is a real problem to me, because I think I can't express it in Latin. It means "I carry as many mysteries as the ocean (carries)"...

Thank you, Sweety!

But it is not the same as Alexia's version, goncin...

Sweetie! There's no "with me" on the first phrase!

You're right, Goncin!

I'm sorry for my mistake.

So I understand the final bridge souds:
"I carry as many mysteries as the ocean (carries)"...

Your translation, goncin is nearly perfect. You are expected only to put the nouns I suggested into genetives. That's all. I believe it is not any problem for you.

Great shot!

Oh, just noticed the second sentence of the request! hehe

aenigmates --> aenigmata (this is from Ancient Greek)

Oh, sorry. It seems that both are correct...
I really don't know. Have to check this!

Well, I shouldn't believe the net... The ending -es IS NOT POSSIBLE , as it is NEUTRUM... I still claim it has to be "aenigmata" as I was taught long time ago Probably we have a mistake in wiki source...

Well, I would ask Efee just in case. She is an epigraphist, so will know it for sure...

Efee could you take your stand on it?

You're right - I didn't pay attention to the gender of "aenigma".

"Tantum aenigmatum (gen.) fero quantum Oceanus (subject) fert"
I think the right translation should sound in this way...

Oh yes, this is exactly the same what I typed in my second post above, hehe. Absent-minded as usual . Thank you, Efee.
