I took Latin in high school, but I can't seem to remember what to put to make this phrase: Damnant quod non intellegunt read "You condemn what you do not understand" instead of "They condemn what they do not understand". Your help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

the suffix -nt stands for "they", so "They condemn what they do not understand" would be the correct translation.
edit: oops, I'm sorry, I misunderstood your question! I thought you were asking what it translates to :-( Ignore my answer, the first person is correct, of course!
