actually, it was Latin "quid pro quo" meaning "something for something".  It is used a legal term now for something of value given for something else in return.

Yes it is from Latin!-An "ad literam" translation means:"omni=any" and "modo=way,style...etc".The sense is given by the entire expression!

The phrase comes from a Norse (and then Middle English) verb that has been lost to us.  You might even trace the expression to the Greek verb "agein," which means "to lead," or maybe "agon," which is a contest.\n\nRegretably, it has nothing to do with eggs, egg products, or the laying of eggs.

It means nice to meet you in badly worded Czech.\n\nYou see it on bumper stickers because of "da Ali G. Show". Ali has a character called Borat that begins his bits with that line.\n\nPS: Borat is amazing, and you should check out the show on HBO.

"iacta" is from "iactare" meaning "to throw" or "to cast." \n\nGood luck! :)

Here are several different English translations of the title. All seem to be clear that it has something to do with agriculture, but nothing seems to point to a single translation. Hope this was helpful.\n\nbetween 68 and 42 AD he wrote twelve books "De Re Rustica" (things of the field). http://groups.msn.com/NeapolitanWorldMSN/dererustica.msnw\n"De Re Rustica" was a poem on farming http://www.runtime.demon.co.uk/Systems/Atari/Books/DeReAtari/Preface.html\n"THE HUSBANDRY OF AGRICULTURE" http://www.facstaff.bucknell.edu/cmc033/132_project/varro.htm\nOpus agriculturae (sometimes known as De Re Rustica). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutilius_Taurus_Aemilianus_Palladius\nOn Agriculture (De Re Rustica), http://www.tertullian.org/rpearse/sol_invictus.htm\nTitle: De Re Rustica - Comments: "Concerning Agriculture" http://www.horseshoes.com/learning/henry/henry.txt

Well, as you can see below, it could mean a "Bold Rooster", or a "Bold Gaullian" (for lack of a better name for one from Gaul).  It depends on the context.  For instance, if it is from Caesar, it is most likely referring to the Gauls.  But if it is about agriculture, cooking, etc...you get my point.

Although this is not an exact literal translation, the proverb is said to convey the meaning of the phrase "When in Rome, do as the Romans do": \n\n'quando Romae sum, ieiuno Sabbato'

It's latin and it's a form of the verb 'loquor', meaning to speak. I think its English equivalent would be 'speaking'.

Well, don't know what language, but looks like it should mean "You are my only for all time."  Curious, this injection of a seemingly Latin language phrase into a Germanic language....
