Can anyone translate the english phrase "death before dishonor" into Latin?

Answer 1

The preceding two answers are good.

"mors ante infamiam " - It translates literally as "Death before infamy", infamy (definition: evil fame or reputation, condition of being infamous, infamous act) being a synonym of dishonor.

Also, you could say:

“Ante ignominiam mors” - Literally translated it is "before ignominy, death", that is "death before ignominy" (ignominy definition: personal dishonor or humiliation, shameful or disgraceful conduct)

OR:

"Potius mori quam foedari" - rather (to) die than (to) be dishonoured (death before dishonour)

Latin word order can be variable, as you can see. So now, you can have your pick:).

Answer 2

Potius mori quam foedare = Death berfore dishonor.

This is the motto of Brittany.

Literal translation: Rather to die than to be dishonored.

Answer 3

If you prefer using "ante" this adverb agrees with the accusative and hence it should be
"Ante infamiam mors"
otherwise it could be also
"Magis quam infamiam mors"

Answer 4
