Please translate the following Latin phrases for me…?
You’ll find them on American money (bills and coins). I posted this question because I don’t know how many times some doofus thinks that one of these means “In God we trust” a motto that was introduced rather late in American history and not found on older coins like my 1878 American silver dollar in my collection. Here they are:
E Pluribus Unum.
Annuit Coeptis. [Which is taken from Virgil's Aeneid]
Novus Ordo Seclorum
Please also note that these phrases like the eye on the pyramid symbol on the dollar bill are part of Masonic lore.
First correct answer gets the points! All three must be correct.
E Pluribus Unum – From many, one. Or, One out of many.
Annuit Coeptis – (Providence) favors (our) undertakings
Novus Ordo Seclorum – New Order of the Ages
