| sever the ties Ancoram solvo / solvo Explanation: Which means "I'm weighing anchor". Since it has to be tattooed, you might just use: "solvo" which has the same meaning, along with the main one of "untie, sever". "(Vos) valete, (ego) solvo" (You, keep safe, I'm making off!) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs 28 mins (2005-07-18 07:49:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Forgot to write you can add a \"nunc\" (now), so to convey an immediate future meaning. \"Valete, nunc (ancoram) solvo\" or better, you can use a gerundive, to convey the idea of necessity \"(Salvete atque) valete, nunc solvendum est\" (Stay keep, it\'s time to set sail!). I stop here, too many ideas coming up! |
