This is a website for Greek organizations. It's not for the language or country.

Besides the fact that that looks like Latin. I don't know; I studied Latin a while ago and I don't think that it is similar to Greek.

ETA: Turns out, not at all.

Maybe you confused Greek Chat with Google?

Step 1: Visit http://www.google.com
Step 2: Enter your query into the search box. In your case, it is "Quod tu es, ego fui, quod ego sum, tu eris"
Step 3: I'll let you take it from here :)

Alternatively, you could try asking your school's Language Department for a resource or two.

When you are, an idiot like drahman, you ask everyone, to do your homework for you.

It looks like Latin and he can look up himself what it means.

Well, I'll go ahead and say it.

It's a fairly well-known Roman Epitaph: "What you are, I was; what I am, you will be."

In other words, was alive, now is dead.

My guess is that drahman is a pledge who will soon be initiated, and his friend (read: brother) is giving him a hint that initiation is coming up.

MysticCat: Do you know what does 'What you are, I was; what I am, you will be' exactly means...i mean in order to give someone a hint...
