ANST - A Royal Motto

[Gunnora Hallakarva]

His Royal Highness Barn asked for the following mottos:
>If anyone out there could help with a translation into latin of my motto I
>would be greatly appreciative.
>" Endeavor to persivear"  or if that is not possible "Strive to overcome"

"Endeavor" and "strive" are pretty much synonyms.  Depending on nuance,
several of the verbs below will fill the bill for that part of the phrase. 

Endeavor to persevere
Conare Persevare

Strive to overcome
Enitare Superare
