Paenitet nuntiare sumus

You can't say that. A direct translation would be "Paenitemus nuntiare" but the more common Latin usage is "Nos paenitet nuntiare". The "we are" is part of the 1st person plural declension of the present continuous and is not part of "to be" - which is how you've used it.

Someone wasn't paying attention in Winker Watson's Latin lessons:)

Never got beyond 'Caecilius est pater', to be honest.
