Can anyone help with this translation:
"Si corp meu tradam igni earitate aute non habei nihil vtilitatis."
It could mean something like, "surrender your body to the fire "

Thank you for the reply martox45.
That's great.
(and I'm sorry about the misspelling - it was the best I could read off an engraving in a book re Latimer and Ridley).

When you post a sentence for translation you should check it's not so ugly mispelled....!!! Look at how is different...!!
Correct and complete text (from St.Paul - 13th chap.of the first Epistle to the Corinthians) reads:
"SI CORPUS MEUM TRADAM IGNI CHARITATEM AUTEM NON HABEAM, NIHIL INDE UTILITATIS CAPIO".
that's in English
"If I yield my body to the fire but I have no charity, I don't gain anything thereby"

I'm not going to translate this for you - but you can learn the language yourself by using the free lessons on the Latinum podcast.
