"Quod est 'Amici Romani et Cives' in Latine?"
More properly...
QUODESTAMICIROMANIETCIVESINLATINE
The Romans were not big on spaces...
Imagine writing mans' laughter the way the Roman's did...

Amici Romani et Cives
Do not trust those online translators - they just do not work, especially so with Latin. Amicitia Romanorum quod Paganus translates as 'Friendship of the Romans what peasant.' Not a single word right.

The quote comes from Shapespeare, in English. Still interesting in Latin. Just thought you might want to know.

Here's the whole speech.
Amici, Romani, Cives, date mihi aures! Gaius lulius Caesar mortuus est. Nonnulli e senatoribus censent Caesarem iure caesum esse; nam Caesare mortuo Roma tandem est liberta tyrannide. At re vera, eratne Caesar tyrannus? Nobilissimus Marcus Brutus sic censuit! Sine dubio erat Caesar superbus ut dignum est. nam tantis factis mirandis perfunctus est!
Quis nostrum non memoria tenet Bellum Gallicum quo Caesar gloriam magnam ac divitias maximas ad Rem Publicam Romanam reportavit!? Quis non audivit de Rubicone flumine et "alea iacta est"!? Quis non meminit proelium in Asia contra Pharnacem quod tam celeriter confectum est ut Caesar nuntiaret "Veni, Vidi, Vici!"? Sed nobilissimus Brutus dicit Caesarem voluisse regnum. Caesar rex? Nonne ego ipse, Marcus Antonius, Lupercalibus proximis, ter volebat diadema Caesari imponere? Nonne Caesar negavit!? Certe erat Caesar superbus, sed ut mihi videtur superbia non tyrannum facit.
Come on, that's got to be worth 10 points.

Maybe this one too
Amicus, Romanorum atqui Proletarius.
ps. atqui is a conjunction, and quod is used to start a sentence.
