Latin Words

On Friday I had went to the first varsity football game. During my time there, I had bought a couple of shirts and other things like food, drinks, etc. I had received some change and as sat their counting the money, I remembered there is a ton of latin on the U.S dollar. The first phrase, which is on the top of the pyramid, is Annuit Coeptis which mean "He approves of our undertakings." The next phrase is Novus Ordo Serclorum which means "a new order of the ages".  The last latin phrase I saw is E Pluribus Unum which mean "one out of many". This shows how long Latin dates back and how it is still used in everyday life like currency.
