  1. Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus... i guess the "titillandus" portion seemed obvious/appropriate to the context... but to translate as "tickle" - lets just say i was thankful when you told me it was pseudo-latin - i was at the point of looking it up for not knowing the base verb... lol
  2. Yep! Hogwart's school motto. Nunquam means 'never', so it translates as 'Never tickle a sleeping dragon'. Of course, titillandus is one of JKR's made-up words, not really Latin at all. Clever boy, you are!
  3. Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus means dont wake sleeping dragons.... right???? not familiar with "nunquam"...
