What does ‘Marte Meo’ mean?
I discovered the term ‘Marte Meo’ in classical Latin texts. ‘Marte’ derives from ‘mars’ which conveys ‘strength’, and ‘Meo’ is derived from ‘meus’ and meaning ‘me’ or ‘independent’. So together, ‘Marte Meo’ can be translated from Latin to mean ‘on one’s own strength’, which had very special appeal to me.
