Sorry for the group post, I deleted the address for the person who wanted
the Latin for
"Like dragons, ducks sleep lightly"
------------------------
My daughter sent this message to my request -- she is NOT a Latin teacher.

Yes it has been a while, at least ten years since I took any
Latin, but I gave it a shot:  Similis draconum anates dormiunt leviter

You might tell whoever to use this as a last resort, because it's very
literal and probably not good idiomatic Latin.

Use at your own peril.  :>)
