I'll do my best with two years of Latin under my belt.

Ego - I; Sum - am (present tense); Rex - nominitive of rex, regis, 'king'; Gloriae - renown

I am a king of renown (glory / fame).

  • Ego is the subject, "I". Like in Spanish, this pronoun may be omitted because the verb tells you who is talking. Sum is a present, first-person tense of the verb 'to be' (sum, es, est / sumus, estis, sunt)--it means, on its own, 'I am.' The inclusion of 'ego' works to emphasize it. *I* am, me and only me. Rex is in the nominitive case, which means a subject; it sort of stands alone. It's modified by 'gloriae', which is the genitive form of 'gloria', the word for glory or fame. Genitive means it's possessive. It emphasizes 'of glory', 'king of glory/fame'--meaning glory owns the king.

Hope that helps.
