and I thought it would be cool to write something in latin, so I thought this would be the best place to get some tips. (I know this is not the best place, but it's the best I know of )
I understand that when the roman generals earned their triumph they entered the city with a slave behind him repeating the phrase "Memento mori" (remember you are a mortal) and holding a crown over his head but not touching it.
is this right?
I seem to recall that another phrase was pronounced after that one sayng that "all glory is fleeting". is this true? if it is, which is the latin translation?
Another possibility (according to google) would be "All glory is ephemeral"
Would anyone be so kind as to help me?
Thanks!
PS: Some possibilities I Found:
1.-Sic transit gloria mundi
2.-Sic transit gloria
