It's "Pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo" - the opening of a Catullus poem addressed to two people (can't remember who) and translates vaguely as "I'll bu**er you and stuff you" (ie he'll sodomise one and get the other to fellate him).
Those wacky Romans eh?
I have taken into consideration the different meanings of "pedicabo et irrumabo" and have taken in theory that it actually is " pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo" as linseli said. Although as far as the meaning behind it, the meaning given by linseli could be correct, however after looking at many facts the meaning "pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo" is, and excuse my language, " I will **** *** in the ass." which is taken from the Catulli Carmina. Although does not mean that Mann was homosexual, though he might have been.
Yeah, linseli is closer. In latin you don't have to say I or you or he and so on. You can do that just by conjugating a verb. "Pediccabo" = "I or I'll Penetrate". Ego does mean I but you use that only if you want to really make your point clear. Vos means You. Et, of course is And. Irrumabo, you can see, ends with o like pediccabo, so that means I or I will stuff or push in. Now I'm not sure on this but I think Irrumabo is like saying I will open, like as in a door...or in this case a back door.....Anyway, very losely here, what the guy was trying to say was.
I'm really going to **** you. I will and I'm going to ram it!
if my answer gets blocked &nbs p; "Pedicabo ego vos moderator!"
