I don't need an education in latin to get an idea of the meaning.

de : de le, de la = van

de le = du

But this is a pretty simple sentence, with words that can easily be found in other languages and no hard sentence-construction.

Lets give it a try: de(about) gustibus(ablatief:tastes?) et(and) coloribus(ablatief:colours) non(not) est disputandum (gerundivum/gerundium ?: damned, I hate verbs :grum: )

you're right!! and disputandum is a gerundivum (because it's with est): should not be discussed

so, a good english translation would be:
tastes and colours should not be discussed

waaaaaaaay too late (didn't read the second page)

. I knew it wasn't as simple as 'are not disputable' or 'cannot discuss about'.

To bad I couldn't remember the difference between gerundium and gerundivum and how I should translate it.

Kinda interesting, we started whit Santa, and now we're discussing some latin phrase
