Vertaling - Engels-Latijn - The path of the righteous man is beset on all...

Hi alui,
I like your translation very much. I have got just some doubts.
I can't understand why you have used a verb "circumstare" in the first sentence.
"Beset" - circumsedere?
And what does this "vitae" refer to?

Moreover, I don't like too much this "inventor", you have used in the second sentence, because it reminds me too much of English word "inventor". You know it seems that the sense of a "finder" here is a bit different. Don't you think?
How about using "recuperator" instead?
Welcome to Cucumis!

Hi, Aneta

Circumstare was the first verb that came to mind, but yes, I do like your choice of circumsedere much better.

"Vitae" is used idiomatically with "integer" (or "integri" in this case) to convey that this man is morally upright. (lit. "whole of life" -> righteous.) I learned this construction from Ode 1.22, and since I haven't seen it anywhere else it might be a bit obscure, but I think it's not too far-fetched.

And yes, I agree with you there, too. Recuperator is better.

Thank you for your insights. I look forward to being a part of this community.

Hi again!
"Integer vitae scelerisque purus" is a whole expression which means "(a man) of spotless life and free from all crime" (forgive me if my English is a bit weird, I'm not a native English speaker as you are). However, I think the expression is a bit too exaggerated in our case. Why not to use simply "vir integer" or "vir iustus"?

If you accept my suggestions, will you edit your translation, please?

I'm very glad you appreciated our Cucumis. We all love the site and we need a person like you, who's good at English and Latin in one go.
My best regards,
Aneta

Your English is better than you think! Yeah, you're probably right, including "vitae" is a bit unnecessary. Edited.

Great! I have set a poll now just to make sure if we are right indeed. People who know English and Latin can vote on your translation now.
Let's wait for more opinions.

Thanks for your kindness!
