Not to mention that you automatically sound super-smart when you say stuff in Latin...

Hehehe, most people I know who quote Latin phrases usually can't tie their shoelaces without help and struggle with very basic concepts

Okay, on her song Whisper, at the end of one saying, I know they say Malefico. Thats about all I can tell from it. They change the last word when they say it again. All I remember is that they just say malefico at the end of one verse. Also, I went onto VH1 and found somewhere that it ment Save us from all evil and stuff. I think its right. Besides shouldn't you think the people singing it would sing it right? I'm pretty sure its right.

Not necessarily. I and a couple other people on here have taken Latin as a subject. Take it from us, dear: it's incorrect.

If it was done correctly, it would not have coincided with the rhythm of the song. "Servatis a periculum/maleficum" fits the rhythm beautifully, and it conforms to what people automatically think of as 'Latin'. Really, if you saw "servatis a periculum" you'd be like "dude that is so Latin". If, however, you saw "Nos servate a periculo" you'd be like 'WTF is THAT?!' lol.

At any rate, it's Latin, it's cool, and I don't care if it's incorrect. *listens to Whisper about six times before finally going to bed*
