Vertimas - Italų-Lotynų - Non essere dipendente, sii fedele!

Hi Alex!
"Noli" can't go with the "coniunctivus"...

Yep. Sorry, I got confused...

I see...

And do you know this proverb: "Fac fideli sis fidelis" = 'Be faithful to the person who is faithful'?

I believe that the "coniunctius" would sound better in this case...

Yes, at first I thought that "coniunctivus" could be a good choice (according to what Bilge wrote under the French translation), but I don't know why I didn't use it.

I wonder where my mind was when I translated this request...

Thank you dear!

Why not the imperative "fidelis es"?

Because "Be faithful" is not an order but an encouragement.

At first Alex translated it in the imperative, but I suggested him to change the mood into the subjunctive... Was I wrong?

In my very very very humble opinion, Aneta is right.
Since you both can speak French, please have a look at what Bilge wrote in the remarks field under the French version.

Ok, I think the conjunctive could be better.
