I'm participating in the creation of an archery club, and we want name it dragon's archers in Latin. The Google Translate result draco sagittariis doesn't convince me. I think the declination is not correct. I bet for sagittarii draconis.

If you mean Dragon's Archers/Archers of the Dragon it would be "Dracōnis sagittāriī"

Or if you mean Dragons' Archers/Archers of the Dragons it would be "Dracōnum sagittāriī".

As an alternative, it could be just "Dracōnēs sagittāriī", dragon-archers or archer-dragons.

Note: both terms of any of those three sentences may be used in whichever order you like.

  • About the order, it's preferable to use NOM + GEN (Sagittāriī dracōnis)?
