    Translating E PLURIBUS UNUM

    The general meaning of each Latin word is clear:
    Pluribus is related to the English word: "plural."
    Unum is related to the English word: "unit."
    E Pluribus Unum describes an action: Many uniting into one. An accurate translation of the motto is "Out of many, one" – a phrase that elegantly captures the symbolism on the shield.
