Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The real quote is "Et tu, Brute!?" which is Latin for "And you, Brutus!?" Julius Caesar says this just before Brutus stabs him, because Brutus betrayed him, and he had never expected that!. I guess the quote is kind of short for "And you [betrayed me too], Brutus!?" Www@QuestionHome@Com the other answers you got are correct!.'et tu brute!?' was based on suetonius's account of caeser,according to which, caeser, about to die, says to brutus, 'and thou my son!?',a reference to suetonius's belief that brutus was caesers illegitimate son!.in 1595 the phrase first appeared in The True Tragedy Of Richard Duke Of York,it seems the phrase was common on the stage at that time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Not quite!. The line reads: Et tu, Brute!? This means And you [too] Brutus!? "Brute" is the vocative for "Brutus!." Line has additional force because the "tu" is the familiar form of "you"--his close friend has betrayed him!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Julius Ceaser said Bruto: "Tu quoque, Brute, fili mi"!.!.!.!.it means "you too, bruto, my son" Www@QuestionHome@Com Yes thats how it goes!. Brutus was Julius Caesers best friend!. Thats what Julius said when brutus stabbed him!. :(Www@QuestionHome@Com |
