Translation: The Decree of religious tolerance.

Milan, 313AD.

What a great word! So am I close in translating ανεξιθρησκείας as something like "no-out-religions" ?

[StellaNtal]

It is the recognition and tolerance of the right to believe in and practise whatever religion (or none) one desires. Comes from ανέξομαι (future of the verb ανέχομαι=tolerate) and the adjective θρήσκος=religious. The correct spelling is ανεξιθρησκία,though, with ι not ει

[jasonalcant]

So, would religious freedom be an acceptable translation?

[jaye16]

This has been an issue for centuries. So, for simple translations let's just use the words given...here it says " tolerance" because the word being taught is "ανεξιθρησκείας"**.

It's best to translate not to try to interpret the sentence.
Just one example of the history of this issue:

"Ανεξιθρησκία" is a compound word and the right spelling is with -ι, as has already been mentioned.
But "θρησκεία" as a single word is spelled with -ει.

[AlexisSald1]

When I said this phrase in google translate it spelled it with ει

[DavidGrime7]

... and Duolingo's own dictionary spells it with the ε.

[G.Georgopoulos]

The correct spelling is with an "-ι-" .

[Walt1965]

Previous moderator posts in this lesson say that the correct spelling is ανεξιθρησκίας, without the ε. This entry says that omitting the ε is a typo. Which is it?

[Walt1965]

As StellaNtal notes above, with ι not ει ...

[Dave350439]

In English, capitalization is generally not used for emphasis. "Decree" should be not be capitalized in the translation.

[G.Georgopoulos]

It's not about emphasis, here.

[Dave350439]

Sorry, jumped to a conclusion.
What is it about that would justify capitalization in English? I couldn't think of anything. If it is the title of a specific decree, then the translation should be "Decree of Religious Tolerance", with caps throughout.

[SergioCrem1]

I would suggest to insert 'toleration' as an admissible alterative. John Locke wrote precisely 'A Letter on Toleration'

[G.Georgopoulos]

Yes, added.
