Guest Venu Gopalakrishnan Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 Hi, I would like to know if I use the phrase "te bene" does this mean equivalent to "Your success" in english? Is that an actual usage in latin? te bene? I tried the translation for "Your Success" in google transation, and it gave me te bene, wanted to check whether this is right or not. Thanks Venu G Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludovicus Posted January 8, 2011 Report Share Posted January 8, 2011 "Tibi bene" is better grammar. "Te" is the objective (accusative) case. You want the indirect (dative). Sounds like a short version of: from: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bene Adverb bene (comparative melius, superlative optimē) well Tibi bene ex animo volo. I wish you well with all my heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
