Nietzsche and his boys, such as Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, and novelist Fyodor Dostoyevsky, put forth a lot of bizarre ideas at the end of the last century. Those ideas opposed damn near everything that came before them, and scared some people half to death.
Everything Burns
Awesome, that print button! it really makes it so easy to read this article without all the stupid ads, social network buttons and everything else! without that print button, trying to save this article would really be a fucking pain in the arse and make people not want to read the article at all!
In a project of mine I have an event which was named "everything burns", or potentially "Everything burned" (I am open to both tenses). What would this be in classical Latin? I tentatively have this as either Omnia Urit or Omnia Exurit.
The second and more complicated thing is ergativity.Some English verbs behave ergatively, meaning that the one experiencing the action is the object when both subject and object are present but the subject when there is no object.For example, in "I grow pumpkins" and "the pumpkins grow" the grower is always the pumpkin, but the vegetable seems to be the object in the first version and the subject in the second.One of the ergatively behaving verbs in English is "burn": In "I burn the wood" and "the wood burns" the same apparent switch of roles happens.
Latin verbs do not have this ergative behaviour.Instead, Latin verbs with an object are transitive.(There might be rare exceptions, but as a rule of thumb this is quite safe. And at the very least, awareness of the phenomenon will help avoid errors. See this earlier question about ergative verbs in Latin for details.)In particular, urere means "to burn [something]".That is, if everything burns (omnia urunt) using this verb, it means that everything is causing something else to be destroyed by flames.To express that everything is being burned, you need passive voice.What you need is omnia uruntur, with or without ex-.
If you want to switch it to the past, use the passive imperfect (if everything was burning) or the passive perfect (if everything has burned down).These would be omnia urebantur and omnia usta sunt, where sunt can be left out in some contexts.Without the sunt it can be read as "all burnt things" (a noun phrase) instead of "all things have burnt" (a clause); whether this is an issue should be judged on a case-by-case basis.
'Til everything burns while everyone screams
Burning in their lies, burning my dreams
All of this hate and all of this pain
I'll burn it all down as my anger reigns
'Til everything burns
