one thing the human emotional range is lacking is the predator animal ability to stare at people while holding the limp, bloody corpse of your prey in your mouth

Ostendes tuum et ostendam meus.

You read 'The Raven Boys' by Maggie Stiefvater and were always wondering what insulting thing Ronan was saying to Whelk? Quick reminder:

"You seem to have an extremely large bag today, Mr. Lynch.", Whelk said. "You know what they say about men with large bags", Ronan replied. "Ostendes tuum et ostendam meus?" Gansey had no idea what Ronan hat just said, but he was certain from Ronan's smirk, that it wasn't entirely polite. Whelk's expression confirmed Gansey's suspicion, but he merely rapped on Ronan's desk with his knuckles and moved off.

In this scene Ronan is hiding Baby!Chainsaw in his bag and Whelk has new interest in the Boys bc he just found out they are searchin for the ley line as well.

The main word you need to know to translate this Latin phrase is the verb 'ostendere', which means 'to show something'. So what Ronan is saying is 'You show me yours and I'll show mine.'
