Et tú Bruté? Then fall Caesar!

Hey what does this quote mean?
Teacher said no google, and you may ask friends and families

[NoctiZ]

The last words of Caesar. On the day he was murdered by a group of senators he apparently spotted Brutus, his good friend, and said "Even you, Brutus?" because he was surprised to be betrayed by a friend. Or something like that atleast.

[Damus_Graves]

Well it more likely means something like:
"And you as well..."
But more or less what NoctiZ said

This would be the literal translation, it's more or less the same so ya.

Also there is a question mark.

I'm pretty sure everyone over the age of 15 knows what that means.

[powerofdeath]

Oh its latin... Wow i must not be paying attention in latin xD

Edit: yeah its definitely Latin... Et mean and and tu is you singular. Brute is vocative case of brutus and us changed to short e

[powerofdeath]

Latin is terrible, wished i did spanish instead

Didnt Anthony say this quote? He was trying to convince the mobs to think brutus is a bad guy
Im not in honors english, but i know the quote

[Landstander]

This is like 5th grade education crap, maybe not nowadays, but if I recall it is, "And you Brutus?" Brutus betrayed him a shivved Caesar along with like 10 other Senators.

[Mateo]

it means "you too, brutus?"

caesar had been warned that he would be attacked on the ides of march. he wasnt surprised by the treachery of the senators, only the treachery of brutus, who was his best friend and trusted general.

[powerofdeath]

OK GUYS I KNOW WHAT THE QUOTE MEAN AND I KNOW HOW THE STORY GOES BEFORE I KNEW WHAT THE QUOTE MEANT

NO NEED TO SAY WHAT THE QUOTE MEAN 50 TIMES WHEN SOMEBODY ALREADY SAID IT.

[Mateo]

yup, marc antony, future husband of cleopatra, said this. cassius convinced brutus that the assassination was in the best interest of rome, and after brutus tried to convince the romans that caesar had to go, marc antony delivered his "friends, romans, countrymen, lend me your ears" speech

i had to write a 5 page essay dissecting the use of rhetoric in this speech
