The word "of" or "for"... preferable of

Ladies and gentleman, this is what happens when the Outhouse is closed.

I don't know "of", but "for" in latin is nam or enim.

Latin doesn't use the word ''of'', it just doesn't exist. Instead, you have to decline the noun to the genitive form. If you can't do that, gimme the word I do it for yourself.

Deus "of" Atrum

Atrum is ''dark'', so it doesn't make any sense the way you're putting it. "Deus of atrum" would be something along the lines of God of dark (not darkness), which sounds retarded... Hurt

If the noun is "Atrum, -i", then it's Deus Atri. :f6:

But as Rob said, it doesn't make much sense.

Darkness is Umbra or Tenebrae. Whatever suits you. That would make your phrase (which I guess is for an ign) ''Deus Tenebri'' or ''Deus Umbrae''..

Atrum isn't a word Rolleyes Your ''italian-ness'' disappoints me.

EDIT: woops, super ninja'd.

I don't know what my language is like. Frown
Lately when I keep up conversations in my native language I most often have to translate the sentences from English.. Maybe I should get off my computer a bit.

Don't feel embarrased. It happens to me too. I often end up using English sentence constructions in Spanish. It's awful and it makes you look like a retard. lol
