Hi there, any german people that could help me with the following sentence:

Quote

If possible, please correct any gramatical errors, THANKS!

You are missing a word in the second part.

Are you trying to write "Mensch" plural or singular?

Also, is the sentence a statement or a question?

It's a statement and "Mensch" as in "humanity".

Mensch means human and humanity is "Menschlichkeit".

And what do you mean by "lieb". Give me a translation in English, would help a lot.

Love the man who seeks his own demise, for he is the transition to the Übermensch

So I guess you don't need "humanity" in the sentence. So, with the words in your sentence, it would go like this:

Liebe den Mensch, der seinen eigenen Untergang will, weil er der Ubergang zu den Ubermensch ist.

I believe it's like that. I'm not too strong in German grammar...
