    Does anyone know what "curse of madness" means in latin?

    Possible translations i got so far:

    dirus ab versania
    maledictrum insania
    vomica ab insania

    Which is the correct one?

    vomica : ulcer, sore, boil / plague, curse.

    diruo : to demolish, destroy, ruin. <- not that close to curse i guess

    insania : insanity, irrationality, madness, folly.

    ab : from the (literal translation)

    I guess maledictum insania is the closest literal translation out of the three from that. Im still not sure on the structure of latin though so i cant say that its definitely that but its more right than the other two from what i know

    Edit: Yeah, Maledictum Insania would be the best title of the three

    hmm nero the reason why there is no ab is because the tum ending makes it of with gramatical sense.
