I want "I am ghost" in latin, feminine form. I don't know if it's phasmati, phasmatis or just phasma. Or something totally different. Can anyone help me get this JUST right? Thank you :)

Phasma sum.
Larva sum.
Phasma is a neuter noun; it does not have a feminine form. It is a Latin word that was derived from Greek, just as we have many words in English that are based on Latin words. You want the nominative case; the other forms you listed are the dative and the genitive case. Latin is an inflected language and the endings of the word change, depending on how the word is being used in the sentence. You can also use larva - it is a feminine noun that also means ghost.

neither of your alternatives is Latin. Maybe you refer top the greek word "phantasma" for ghost/imagination, also used in Latin? That would be "phantasma sum"
