明星的拉丁语纹身引发的文字纹身热潮

　拉丁语，听到这三个字是不是就想起那些一长串的植物名称和药物名称？估计这年头没人愿意学这种历史文物一般的语言了吧，但是英国的小盆友们都说要学，还想参加考试，这是为什么捏？这其实就是传说中的“扇子外语”(fans)学习精神啦。纹身图案

　　Celebrity Latin tattoos may be fuelling a revival of the ancient language in schools, it emerged today。

　　明星们的拉丁语纹身引发了一阵学习拉丁语的热潮。

　　Pupils are increasingly demanding to study the subject, according to an exam board, as tattooed celebrities such as David Beckham and Angelina Jolie enhance Latin's profile。

　　小贝和安吉丽娜身上的纹身都是用拉丁语写的，由此很多学生表示要学习这门语言。

　　But examiners urged pupils not to emulate model Danielle Lloyd, whose Latin tattoo is riddled with errors。

　　考试机构表示，大家的态度是值得鼓励的，但是不要乱学，就像模特Danielle Lloyd，她身上的拉丁纹身有很多语法错误。

　　While Beckham and Jolie's Latin inscriptions are grammatically correct, Lloyd's is meaningless, they said。

　　小贝和安吉丽娜在这方面就做得很好，语法都是正确的。

　　Her tattoo, 'Quis attero mihi tantum planto mihi validus', which is etched on to her shoulder, is intended to translate as 'To diminish me will only make me stronger'。

　　Danielle Lloyd纹在身上的那句：Quis attero mihi tantum planto mihi validus，据说意思是：打压我只会让我更强大。

　　But experts say the words in fact translate into something more akin to 'Who I wear away for me only for me strong'。

　　但是语言专家说，这句话根本不通。

　　Beckham, on the other hand, gets full marks for his two Latin tattoos。

　　小贝在语法上就没犯什么错误，值得学习。

　　The footballer has 'Ut Amem Et Foveam' (meaning 'So that I love and cherish') inscribed on his left forearm and 'Perfectio In Spiritu' (meaning 'Perfection in spirit') on his right。

　　他的左臂上写着：我爱我珍惜，右臂写着：精神完美。

　　Meanwhile Jolie chose 'Quod me nutrit me destruit', which means 'What nourishes me also destroys me'。
