Espírito Livre;

Conhece A Ti Mesmo;
Remarks about the translation
Gostaria que as expressões fossem escritas de duas maneiras:

a primeira, com as palavras escritas com as primeiras letras maiúsculas, exemplo: "Conhece A Ti Mesmo" / "Espírito Livre";

a segunda maneira de forma normal como em uma frase, exemplo: "Conhece a ti mesmo"; Espírito livre"

Muito Obrigado...

Να ρωτήσω, μήπως πρέπει να προσθέσουμε και το "γνώθι σαυτόν" ως μετάφραση του "Conhece A Ti Mesmo";

Μπορεί, αλλά δεν πιστεύω να είναι τίποτα το γνώστό εδώ. Και είναι ρήμα - δεν είναι ουσιαστικό. It's "Know yourself", not "self-knowledge".

α) το γνώθι σαυτόν (gnothi seauton) είναι νομίζω αρκετά γνωστό σε όλον τον κόσμο.

β) μα το γνώθι σαυτόν δεν είναι ουσιαστικό Σημαίνει να ξέρεις τον ίδιο τον εαυτό σου.

Nossa, eu agradeço a preocupação, sério de verdade, quanto ao meu pedido, mas eu não falo grego, então eu não entendi...só entendi que há uma discordância...Por favor, será que tem como me explicar?

Valeu, muito obrigado...

The question was whether to use an older, but very well known expression for "Know thyself". I now agree with irini that we should do that, so I changed my translation to the one she suggested.

Kafetzou, why not ελεύθερο πνεύμα (free spirit)?

Ελεύθερη ψυχή is just "free soul".



( Γνώθι σ’αυτόν or γνώθι σαυτόν is ok! )

Nope! In ancient Greek it would be γνῶθι σαὑτόν and in modern γνώθι σαυτόν (or γνῶθισεαυτόν /γνώθι σεαυτόν).

I agree about the free spirit though. As a verbatim translation mind you; I don't really speak Spanish.

They are both philosophical sayings:

the first one is from Nietzsche, referring to the humanists (de- freie Geister).

the second one is the maxim of Socrates.

caspertavernello lol! Sorry I was reading the Spanish wikipedia and I made a mistake. I meant that I don't really speak Portuguese so when it comes to expressions I cannot speak with any authority.
