That is easy, since Western languages use variants of the Latin alphabet.
INQVIETVS
INQVIETVDO
- for classical Latin, if you REALLY want to write it as a Roman did. For later Latin or for quoting Latin in Western languages, or for rendering classical Latin texts, you normally use "U" instead of "V" for vowels, and you use lower case (inquietus, inquietudo). But the old Romans only used upper case letters, and only these letters:
A B C D E F G H I K L M N O P Q R S T V X Y Z
-And, by the way, inquietus means "restless", and inquietudo "restlessness".
Sorry, we need more info. The endings of Latin words vary, depending on whether the word is the subject, direct object, object of a preposition, etc.
What sentence or phrase are you trying to translate to (or from) Latin?
inqvietvs or inqvietvs. Technically, the English language uses the Latin alphabet without diacritics, and all other western european languages use it with diacritics. Eastern Europe generally uses Cyrillic (Poland, Czech Republic and Romania use the Latin) and Greece uses the Greek alphabeta.
INQVIETVS
INQVIETUDO.
The Romans always wrote in capital letters and wrote "u" as "v".
