How would Romans sign off letters?

"Yours", "Yours truly", "Sincerely", and the like, sound a little clunky as "Tuus", "Tuus vere", vel "Sinceramente" quid vulgus est vel "Sincerissime" quid visum est me floridum. Nolo imitari classical forms of closure, sed bring an ancient language up to date.

How do you end a letter in Latin?

Vale is often used. That's how Pliny and Seneca would normally sign off their letters. You could also say ave or have, which mean "be well" or "be happy".

Did the Romans use V instead of U?

There was the sound for the letter we call U, but it didn't look like U. It looked like V. The Classical Latin alphabet had only 23 letters, not the 26 that we have today. (This is why the W looks like a double V but is pronounced like a double U.

Does Latin use V?

The letters “missing” in the Latin alphabet are j, w, and capital U/small v (see below, under Sounds of Semivowels). In your textbook, however, you will find both v and u, and U.

What does yours &C mean?

In closing a letter never subscribe yourself Yours, &c. &c. is an abbreviation of etc., which is an abbreviation from the Latin words et cetera, meaning and others, or, and so forth; forth means onward or forward. Hence there can be no propriety in saying I am yours and others, or I am respectfully yours and onward.

What is Latin for best wishes?

Bonam fortunam (tibi exopto)! — (I wish you) good fortune!

How do Spanish people sign-off?

Closing Your Letter

Saludos (Greetings) Un saludo cordial/Saludos cordiales (Best wishes) Sinceramente (Sincerely) Muy atentamente/Muy cordialmente (Yours sincerely)

Signing off with “saludos”

It is kind of like adding some “regards” at the end of an English-language email, although in Spanish it does have a friendlier tone to it (maybe “kind regards” is a better equivalent).

How do I sign out of Catalan email?
