i'm trying to translate "from your lawn, i shall not remove myself" for a personal project

i did google, and it came out tua byssus nam neque me, which did not translate back into anything close to the english phrase

There are websites designed for this exact reason. Use one of them instead of trying to look cool using Latin that you don't actually speak

(ablative of lawn) meus, non moveo

need some long marks in there


ETA: this would be "from my lawn, I shall not move" so not exactly how you said. If you want to use land the ablative is terra with long a, and I think you would use meorum instead of meus like lands is plural? idk don't listen to me

Aveho is the verb for remove I think. Or it might be aufero.

I'm fuzzy on reflective pronouns, I'll check later if no one gives a definitive answer

I would maybe use the sibjunctice of moveo so it's "let me not move"

i think that'd be non moveam

Can use "ego" for emphasis for "I", but not required since it will be covered by the verb

You probably don't need "ipse" or anything since that is reflexive. Like saying "I myself"

My first thought also was that there is no Latin word for lawn :)

This is from your favorite Latin scholar: This guy needs to know that google translate is awful for latin. That said I think this is what he wants to say: ab meum cortem, summovebo non me.
