"Ille Qui Nos Smnes Servabit"

“Ille qui nos omnes servabit” That television fans, the answer to those questions throughout the second half of the season on ABC's hit adventure / drama series Lost, "What lies in the shadow of the statue?". 

This season showed that the group of island residents known as "Others" spoke Latin, and shows the timeless Richard .Has been the language for a very long time.

Did you catch "Ille qui omnes servabit" on LOST tonight? What is the Latin translation of "Ille qui omnes servabit" from LOST tonight?

The Latin language website says the following:

"Ille qui nos omnes servabit" What TV fans, the answer to those questions throughout the second half of the season on ABC's hit adventure / drama series Lost, "What lies in the shadow of the statue?".

The site says the breakdown is as follows:


Fine; Ille qui nos omnes servabit - "He who will protect us all." Latin students will be careful not to confuse the verb servo, servare - "protect, preserve" (the root of English words such as "maintain" and "preserve"), with near homo phone Servio, servire - "to serve".

For the Lost forums they say it translates loosely as "That which we all serve" or "He has saved us all!"

servabit = saved or to save.
omnes = all, all
Ille = he, she, it
and I think qui = who


Finally, the best explanation is perhaps in Entertainment Weekly, where a Latin professor offers the following:

I am a Latin teacher. If the quote is real, "Ille qui nos omnes servabit," it means, "Whoever wants to save / preserve / protect us all," not "That there, etc." I know that some previous posters already got that right, I'm just checking the translation.
