Translations

Are my translations ok?

Multi Caesarem Alexandro Magno simillimum putaverunt: nam in proelio audacissimus, in consilio prudentissimus, lenissimus in cives, in hostes accerrimus fuit.

Many have thought that Caesar is most similiar to Alexander the Great because he was: bravest in battle, wisest in decisions, most lenient on citizens, sharpest on enemy.

  1. Father of family has given good education to sons and daugthers.
    Bonam eruditiem filiibus et filiis pater familias dedit.

  2. Its very different movement of stars.
    Valde varius motus sidem est.

  3. Homer, most famous of Greeks poets, has left most beautiful epics to the people of the world.
    Homerus, celeberrimus Graecorum poetarum, carminia pulcherrima pueris orbis terris reliquit.

  4. Dog is very similiar to wolf.

  1. Its very different movement of stars.
    Valde varius motus sidem est.

genitive plural of sidus is sider-um.

  1. Homer, most famous of Greeks poets, has left most beautiful epics to the people of the world.
    Homerus, celeberrimus Graecorum poetarum, carminia pulcherrima pueris orbis terris reliquit.

carmen is not an i-stem; the accusative plural is carmin-a.

pueri does not mean “people”, use populus, gentes, or something else.

“the world” is orbis terrarum. Only the first word declines, which makes sense if you understand that it means “orb of the lands”. If you say “to the orb of the lands” or “of the orb of the lands” or “in the orb of the lands”, “of the lands” does not change.

In my book stands orbis terrae - world.

Then I should translate “to the world” as “orbi terrae”?

that works, I see that terra can be either genitive singular or plural.

Ok, thanks for helping me with this and also other sentences.
