Omnia Dicta Fortiori, Si Dicta Latina

“Semuanya terdengar hebat dalam Latin.”

  • sic transit gloria mundi – kejayaan dunia hanya sementara saja. Sic transit server juga bagus :p
  • id est, exempli gratia, post scriptum, nota bene – i.e., e.g., P.S., NB
  • deux ex machina – “a god from the machine” (keren aja ^^)
  • fiat lux – “jadilah cahaya”, atau “let there be light”
  • Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas – “The sower Arepo holds the working wheel.” Memang artinya nggak jelas, tapi coba disusun jadi kotak:
    SATOR<br />
    AREPO<br />
    TENET<br />
    OPERA<br />
    ROTAS

    Super palindrom!

  • Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? – “Who watches the watchers?” (dari Digital Fortress … )
  • Veni, vidi, velcro – Saya datang, saya lihat, saya nempel :D
  • Ad maiorem Dei gloriam – demi besarnya kemuliaan Tuhan (boleh kan ikutan nongol?)
  • Boleh lihat semuanya di Wikipedia atau di sini atau di situ ad nauseam (“sampai muntah-muntah”).

Memang quidquid Latine dictum sit, altum viditur (“semua perkataan dalam Latin terasa heboh”)! Ergo, carpe diem! (“Maka, nikmati hari ini!”)
