English to Latin translation needed
6 Answers
A translation into Latin is needed for 12 winters old.
I can find individual words such as Hiberna for Winter and Duodecim for twelve, but I wondered if there were any students of latin out there who could help. Thank you.

Crikey!
Martial wrote a poetic epigram for Erotion the Slave Girl:
Hic festinata requiescit Erotion umbra,
crimine quam fati sexta peremit hiems.
quisquis eris nostri post me regnator agelli,
manibus exiguis annua iusta dato:
sic lare perpetuo, sic turba sospite solus
flebilis in terra sit lapis iste tua.
Line two says� �She�d have completed her sixth chill winter�
I am probably wrong, but perhaps, �duodecennium hiems� might be something along the line of �twelve years of winter�.
