May I suggest a couple of minor improvements (even if the original German text is a bit awkward)?:

herzliche => hearty, effusive.

Sehr geehrter => Distinguished.

My goal was to get it in Latin, so I was trying to say just like it would be in Latin.

I don't know how many words one can use, so I wanted to avoid wasting words.

And yeah, without context it may sound awkward.

Hi, HansHeineken!
I'd be sorry if I have seemed somehow impolite; this was not at all my aim. Just being sincere; but I understand perfectly your intention to save some words.
Best regards!

"herzliche Grüße" means "best wishes" and "Sehr geehrter" means " Dear" in English.

Of course, these words mean also what you say, Merdogan.
But that is just a poll; and I was giving my honest opinion; not changing or intending to change anything at all.
About "Sehr geehrter Herr Professor", I've received myself quite a few letters with those same opening words, trying to be very formal --and even posh-- in the very sense I've pointed out.

... And, strictly, "herzliche" means "hearty", "cordial" or "effusive" more than "best". In Germany and in U.K. and other English speaking countries.

Hello Lev van Pelt,

It didn't seem impolite to me, please don't feel sorry for that ;-)

I agree with you, I could say "beste Grüße" instead of "herzliche Grüüße" wich was not my intention.

Thank you for your attention! Have a nice day.

'Best wishes' does not quite match the translation 'herzliche Grüße'. Moreover, when you address someone with 'Herr Professor' you don't say 'dich' but 'Sie'.

Sicher, ja.goris; but, with respect to your last point, and as far as I've understood HansHeineken, the contrast between formality and friendliness --even colloquialism- would be deliberate.

Thank you again, Lev van Pelt, it seems that you understood the point here.

I must admit that it's embarrasing when one tries to interpret your text, specially when after doing that he points out how you must say something.

My ex-professor, he is very intelligent, and older than me and always makes me learn something interesting.

After being his pupil we became friends, and I usually greet him saying "magister" (latin for master, teacher)and "Herr Professor".

When we are talking I also say things like: "spinnst du, Herr Professor?" or "hahaha sehr lustig, Herr Professor, aber erzähl mir keine Geschichte".

I have the intention to be pleasant, so it shows the respect that a person must have with teachers, even if they became your friends. It's a mix of respect + cordiality.

Do not please thank me at all, HansHeineken! It has been a pleasure to take part in this "chat", and to know you all (even if I did not understand your intention well enough at the beginning, taking your text too literally.

My best regards!

[Of course, I cannot help you with Latin, but regarding this English translation, you could perhaps consider to write: "My Dear Distinguished Professor"; as a sympathetic --and a little ironic-- mixture of respect and cordiality, in the line that you're telling me. Just an idea...]

Hi guys,

I wonder if:

"My Dear Illustrious Professor, warm greetings (kind regards) to you, with snow on the German winter. I wrote with snow." would please everyone.

I would say that "My Dear Illustrious Professor" is Very good ; I like it; and the rest as well (those "warm greetings... with snow" ).
But, of course, this is not my text, and HansHeineken and Merdogan have to decide.

= with (Snow) from (the) German (Winter). (My comment: Capital letters - even though it's not grammatically correct but underlines the subtle message in the text!)
= I have with Snow been writing. (My comment: Capital letter as above & an alternative sentence that's more in line with the "poetry" iin the original. OK, otherwise!!

@Lilian

Maybe you should have waited for a final opinion from HansHeineken to edit this...?
I don't know, but I was really interested to know what he was thinking about this new headline --good as it was--.
