    This is Latin all right - every word exists and is a legitimate form in Latin. I just can't make out what the meaning of this is supposed to be - it's weird:

    1. Your head (or your leader) is in a circle (or: in a year); I as a whole one (or totally) serve us. (verb operor is a deponent, the form is present tense first person singular; totus is nominative, nos has to be accusative since a plural nominative does not make sense with the sigular verb).

    2. The one bearing the cross; I remain everything one. (weird: sulum is neuter, unus is masculine, the verb again is first person singular...)

    I only know a few words of the ones you have....but the first sentence seems gramatically incorrect. Tuum is an adjective but there is no noun that it is describing. Unless it's used substantively, but then that could be refering to virtually any word...

    Tuum - your - adj

    ano - year - adblative, object of the prep.

    est - is - verb

    nos - we - subject

    and that is all I know. Caput may be a form of the very capio which means to desire or want. Not sure.

    I've always thought that the common practice of referring to people from the Spanish-speaking parts of the Americas as "Latin" was a bit strange. Strictly speaking, it's not accurate. The Latins – the founders of Rome – were the ancient people of the Italian region of Latium, known today as the Italian province of Lazio. If anyone can lay historical claim to the name "Latin," it should be people of Italian descent, rather than people who live in former Spanish colonies and speak the (Latin-derived) Spanish language, but who – in many cases – have little or no heritage from Italy or anywhere else in Europe. Every bit as odd is the practice of describing such people as "Spanish" just because that's the language they speak. You certainly wouldn't get very far trying to call an Irishman "English," I assure you. Strange world we live in.....

    Caput can mean captain.

    tuum=your

    ano=year

    in=upon

    est=is

    nos=we

    operor=to work

    i believe totus means like all as in all of us.

    sulum permaneo unus=every last one.
