Yes - I actually translated Hogwart's motto while daydreaming in my 
Highschool Latin II class...  I just totally don't agree with the 
Latin grammer JK uses in her books (Not only here but in the spells 
as well...)  I know what you are thinking - she's an author, not a 
Latin expert, and I understand that...  I just am appalled at the way 
the words have no traditional endings (us, a, i, etc...) If she is to 
use Latin, use it right, otherwise just make up a random word - 
LOL...  Ok. I am going overboard, I'll admit...  Just wanted to get 
that off my chest!!
