Best Answer

Venisti, vidisti, vincesti! in the singular and Veniste, vidiste, vinceste! in the plural are Italian equivalents of the English phrase "You came, you saw, you conquered!" The declarative/exclamatory statement, which uses Italian's historical remote past tense, paraphrases Gaius Julius Caesar's (July 13, 100 BC - March 15, 44 BC) statement to the Senate -- "I came, I saw, I conquered" -- regarding victory against Pharnaces II of Pontus (97 B.C.? - 47 B.C.?) in 49 B.C. The respective pronunciations will be "vey-NEE-stee "vee-DEE-stee veen-TCHEY-stee" to one "you" and "vey-NEE-stey vee-DEE-stey veen-TCHEY-stey" to two or more "you all" in Italian.
