grammar correction of translated motto

[phesant]

HI!

I translated my favourite motto from my mother tongue (Slovak) but I´m not sure if it is grammar correct. Can you advise me?

Motto:

"Do what you want to other people do to you and don´t do what you don´t want to other people do to you. "

Thanks, Janko

Janko,

The normal saying for this in English, and it's kind of a frozen formula, is,

"Do unto others what you would have them do unto you."

"Do [what you want] to other people [do to you and don´t do] what you [don´t] want [to] other people to do to you. " ---->>>>>


"Do to other people what you want other people to do to you."
