Looking for a translation

Post by MrWhite »

Hello all,

I was hoping to find a little bit of help here for a translation.

The sentence I would like to have translated in Latin is the following one:
"except for those I love"

Let me explain the meaning of this. It will be the underline of a tattoo which has the headline "Concedo Nulli" (I yield to nobody).

Thanks in advance

also/et
"extra/praeter amatos/amicos"
(alternatives either side of the forward slash/subtitutiones lineâ acclive secretae)
I'm writing in Latin hoping for correction, and not because I'm confident in how I express myself. Latinè scribo ut ab omnibus corrigar, non quod confidenter me exprimam.

Could you explain that a little bit more?

How would the sentence be formed then? sorry, English is not my native language!

Thanks in advance
