Hiya, i'm trying to see whether a translation of a calatus poem is correct or not, its kind of important as i would like to put it permanently on my body..

Anways, its callatus 85 and i think - think - the latin is
"odi et amo"

which hopefully translates to
"i love, i hate"?

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks muchly smiley - smiley

"odi et amo"

It's Catullus 85, and it means "I hate and I love".
