I know someone who’s Lego-crazy. What would be a good translation of the phrase “I put together”? Thanks.
Aedificare means “I build” I think… It’s been a while.
Edit: or is it Aedifico?
A lot of possible choices:
applico, admoveo, adjungo, addo, adhibeo, adicio
The obvious Latin verb to use is “ligō” – meaning “I tie, bind or unite.”
Well, there are many variants in Latin for bringing things together, and even fastening them. I myself would go with the resonances of nectō, or its compound connectō, which is the form that got taken up into English.
I read the thread title as ‘crafting a Latin homo’.
Carry on…
Ecce homo!
Many thanks!
