i will teach you how to read and translate natus vincere correctly and also how the words work
first step, pronunciation
V's are pronounced as W's, and all C's have a hard K noise (basically pronounced nat-us win-ker-ay.)

2nd step, words
Natus changes meaning depending on its use. As a noun it means "birth", but when it is a participle (basically a word that becomes an adjective) it means "born".

Now for the harder part, vincere. Vincere is in its infinitive form, which means it is translated as "to (verb)". The infinitive ending in this case is -ere (but for other words it can be -ire or -are). The base word of vincere is "vinc(x)". The x would be replaced by word ending. For just the example, lets to first person present ending, -o. "Vinco" means "I win" or "I conquer". Swap "-o" out for "-ere", and since thats the infinitive ending (reminder, translated as "to verb"), vincere means "To win"

Natus (born) Vincere (to win)

To be honest, i think "Born to conquer" sounds cooler than born to win but navi uses born to win so whatever
ask me how to say stuff in latin ill try to translate it. i take latin in school this isnt google translate

for example
"Zombs killed in the streets of brazil, caught sight of this morning"
becomes
"zombs necavit in vias Braziliō, conspicatus hodie mane"

we know what these words mean without even learning latin

natus vincere in portuguese would be "nascido para vencer"
in italian would be "nato per vincere"

don't ask me how "natus" turned into "nascido"

you said you don't know what merdam means, we use that word daily
for example english is "uma lingua de merda"

latin >>>>>>>>> german languages
we own u
we can joke and call them "natus perdere" any french, portuguese, spanish or italian speaker would understand the pun
braindead english speakers would not kekw

I dont remember. Are you the brazilian lil dude who thinks he's italian?
Why are you so proud of the word shit in your language? oooh aah look at me im saying shit instead of merda oooooh scary.
obviously a school Latin textbook wont include the word merdam/shit, you fucking numbskull.

Are you okay? do you have something against english and germanic languages? why are you so proud of being able to make a pun?

german is one of the most complete indo-european languages

it has 3 genders, romance languages have just 2, english has none
it has grammatical cases (dative, accusative, nominative and genitive)
it has articles (languages like Russian have grammatical cases, but they don't have articles)
it has conjugaction for 3 moods (indicative, subjunctive and imperative), while english doesn't have
it has lots of prepositions you guys can create new verbs merging them with prepositions like wider+sehen, portuguese, french and spanish have just a few prepositions, and we can't merge them with verbs

and there's much more.

I love this meme

the only feature of english that is superior, is that in english it is possible to merge prepositions with verbs, which you call "phrasal verbs", like: take off, run out, look up

all the rest portuguese is better

if you say in english:
"top 10 melhores jogadoras de valorant" = "top 10 best valorant players"

you never know if I'm talking about girls or men cause english has no genders...
I'm talking about girls, so it actually means "top 10 best valorant female players"

jogador = male player
jogadora = female player

Hey this is pretty interesting indeed, thanks for the free class. I like latin and considering until today there are some phrases still used daily, it shouldn't be forgotten
