How would I say.
"Home of the Brothers, The Raiders" Domus of frater, incursio.? Is that correct? |

I never studied Latin, but wouldn't you use a genitive case of 'brothers?' Something like frateris? I'm totally guessing here. Genitive plural, yes. See above.  Yep, you beat me. 
I only studied Greek, but while sitting around in the Classics Lounge at school I picked up enough Latin to be, well, not even dangerous. Maybe mildly disconcerting. |

It's for a club. Its part of our creedence so to say basically, but wondering how it would be translated in Latin. So was I correct since Brothers and Raiders are Plural? |

Quoted: Thanks fellas. Thats what I'm going to go with. [b]Domus Frater, Incursio.[/b] That doesn't say what you want it to say. "Domus" and "Frater" are the nominative singular form of the words "home" and "brother". It's like using two subjects of a sentence. "House". "Brother". "Raid" is essentially what you have there. |

More like three subjects, none in apposition, and no verb. |

Knew what that was before I clicked on it. Exactly where my mind goes when I think of conjugating Latin. Every time. |
