Latin Tattoo: I Am Strong
by Sarah
(Grimsby UK)
Dear Latin Teacher,
What is I AM STRONG in Latin? I am getting a tattoo and fancy this phrase to remind me that I am in fact strong.
Thanks, Sarah
Dear Sarah,
The simplest phrase for your Latin tattoo is sum fortis. It means literally I am strong or I am brave. The Latin adjective fortis can be either masculine or feminine. It can refer to both physical strength and mental strength.
Hope this helps and thanks for asking a Latin teacher.
Sincerely,
John
