[edit] Accuracy of Latin translation

My Latin is not very good, but is this "we do not know and will not know" really an accurate translation of "ignoramus et ignorabimus"? Wouldn't a more accurate translation be "unknown and unknowable"? (I mean, is ignoramus a second person verb, or a gerund?) --SJK (talk) 07:25, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
