What does Fortes Fortuna Juvat mean? I assumed it meant Fortune Favores Brave, however that would be in the wrong order according to this phrase. It was the motto of the Marine Corps Battalion I was in and naturally no one knew what it meant. Fortuna kind of gave it away I suppose, which explains where I got the phrase. Anyways, if you know let me...know.

You were thrown off by word order. It means "Fortune Assists/Helps/Favors/Advantages Brave Men". Simply "Fortune Favors the Brave."

Thank you come again.

And for you Mayhem fans, Ordo Ad Chao is grammatically incorrect because the preposition "ad" takes the accusative. So it should be "Ordo Ad Chaos".

Oh no, it's not kvlt anymore...

I thought that was "audentis fortuna iuvat?" It's from the Aeneid.

"Fortune Assists Daring/Bold Men." I'm assuming that participle is using the archaic accusative ending. See where the word audacity comes from.

So I was right...

Is that the correct order? Fortes Fortuna Juvat?
