Here's another, more concise option: Alteri moriendum ut alter vivat. This uses a different way of expressing "must" than cnread's translations, but means basically the same thing. You could also ch …

The place to look these things up is J.N. Adams, The Latin Sexual Vocabulary (1982). There's a discussion of terms for orgasm starting on p. 142. As Manuel says, the most common verb is patrāre, lit. …

I agree with Draconis's answer that a future less vivid conditional is the best choice here, but I think the specific subtype of future less vivid that's most appropriate is the type with a perfect su …

I think your structure is good but could be compressed a little, for example: Buchan M. Antonium insigne exemplum fuisse dixit peioris viri qui summum fatum inepte secutus se ipsum perdiderit. We ca …

I think Google's suggestion is not far off the mark, for once. I would suggest changing conatus, which means "attempts", to laborem. Labor is obviously the Latin word that gives us "labor", which is s …

Most editions I can find online enclose the words quo causurus with two daggers (†), a.k.a. obeli. In philological notation this is a way of indicating that the editor thinks something has gone wrong …

As Expedito Bipes says, via is probably a better word for "path" than semita in this context. I'm going to suggest a different verb: Memento viae tuae. Memento means "to mind" in the sense of "be mi …

Here's an attempt: Triginta milia librarum? Multo minoris homines necati sunt. librarum is genitive because milia always takes the partitive genitive. Multo is ablative of degree of difference, "(b …

I'd suggest a very slightly less literal translation using the verb caveo "beware", with ne and subjunctive: Cave ne capiaris! Literally this means "watch out you don't get caught!". But this constr …
