The sentence 'Quidquid latine dictum sit altum viditur' contains a misspelling. For the word 'quidquid' is the subject, and therefore needs to be written 'quisquis'. The corrected phrase, 'Quisquis latine dictum sit altum viditur', means Whatever is said in Latin is seen [to be] noble.In the word-by-word translation, the relative pronoun 'quisquis' means 'whoever, whatever'. The adverb 'latine' means 'in Latin'. The adjective/past participle 'dictum' means 'said'. The verb 'sit' means '[he/she/it] is'. The adjective 'altum' means 'high'. The verb 'viditur' means '[he/she/it] is being seen'.A note from another reader: quidquid actually is correct. The original responder is right that quisquis is nominative, and that it means whoever, but quidquid is the NEUTER nominative, and it corresponds with the neuter altum. The sentence is fine. It does indeed mean "it seems high/noble, that thing having been said in Latin," or more understandably, "whatever is said in Latin seems noble." "sit" is subjunctive in an indirect question because of quidquid, if that helps at all.
'Sit' is the third person singular present subjunctive of esse (to be). The whole of that tense goes Sim, sis, sit, simus, sitis, sint. So what it means exactly depends on context but phrases like 'were it to be' or 'should it be', gives you an idea of the range of meanings.Are you asking what the verb is in Latin?Sit in the infinitive (the actual verb 'to sit') is sedere, second conjugation.I - sedeoYou - sedesHe - sedetWe - sedemusYou (pl) - sedetisThey - sedentI was sitting - sedebamYou were sitting - sedebasHe was sitting - sedebatWe were sitting - sedebamusYou (pl) were sitting - sedebatisThey were sitting - sedebant
In the phrase "Felix dies tibi sit," the word "sit" is a form of the Latin verb "esse," which means "to be." In this context, "sit" translates to "may it be" or "may it happen," conveying a wish or hope. Therefore, the phrase overall can be interpreted as "May your day be happy."
