English term or phrase: Always & Forever
I believe aeternum et semper translates as always & forever?? Is it possible to have this written in more authentic latin text rather than modern day english text. Many thanks

always & forever
SEMPER ET IN AETERNVM


Explanation:
Another common rendering would be SEMPER ET IN PERPETVVM. This is the more authentic Latin in that it employs capital letters only, as the Romans did not employ what we call lower case letters until the developement of minuscules in the early Middle Ages.
