'''Amen''', from Latin, from Greek, from Hebrew 'āmēn; its [[Semitic]] roots are: ''A men'', to be firm.

'''Amen''', means "so be it," or more than "I believe."  It is an expression of [[faith]], not merely belief.  from Latin, from Greek, from Hebrew 'āmēn; its [[Semitic]] roots are: ''A men'', to be firm.
    
Amen is frequently used at the end of a prayer or hymn. The word is found in the [[Hebrew]] [[Bible]] and [[New Testament]] as a declaration of affirmation or approval (verily; so be it; truly; let it be; etc.) Colloquially is used to express strong agreement.
