Yes, indeed - this ancient Brit can confirm that this side of the Pond it's "and so say all of us." Tho "all of we" is almost certainly acceptable in some non-standard dialect or other ;) The last line of the Latin version I quoted - Num quis illud negat? - is literally: Surely-not anyone it denies? i.e. Surely no-one denies it? -- Ray ================================== ray@carolandray.plus.com http://www.carolandray.plus.com ================================== Nid rhy hen neb i ddysgu.
