Anyone know a rough translation of the words, ';light of a clear blue morning'; into latin??! Thanks?

Lux mane caerulei sereni (lux = light, mane=morning, caeruleus=blue, serenus = clear,serene about the same as clarus which means clear.

Is a really useful dictionaryAnyone know a rough translation of the words, ';light of a clear blue morning'; into latin??! Thanks?
';CLARO CAERULO MANE LUX';





Edit #1 - Answer to your additional question.





Search engines are almost never working with Latin....!!


'Lux' basically means 'light' . By taking advantage of the link suggested by the answerer here below and by typing ';lux';

you'll find among a few other meanings also


';light, daylight, light of day';.- nominative case -


by typing ';caerulo'; http://lysy2.archives.nd.edu/cgi-bin/wor鈥?/a>


you'll find ';blue, cerulean; deep/sky/greenish-blue, azure; of river/sea deities; of sky/sea';- ablative case-


In fact I've used both adjectives 'clarus' and 'caerulus' at the ablative 'claro' and 'caerulo' (ablative of mode) since I guess it's not correct the use of a specification genitive as suggested here below ('caerulei' and 'sereni' or 'clari').
