There are at least two ways of translating the English phrase 'Hell is the impossibility of reason' into Latin. One way is a bit awkward, but true to the ancient, classical Latin language. That translation is the following: Infernus est quod non fieri potest rationis. The word-by-word translation is as follows: 'infernus' means 'hell'; 'est' means '[it] is'; 'quod non fieri potest' means 'it is impossible'; and 'rationis' means 'reason'. Another translation is smoother, but instead true to the later, medieval Latin. That translation is the following: Infernus est impossibilitas rationis.

Supervening impossibility is the impossibility arising after the formation of a contract. However, this arises at the time when the promisor's performance is due.
