a word used at the end of prayers and hymns, meaning ‘may it be so’ 阿門(用於祈禱或聖歌結束時,表示誠心所願) We ask this through our Lord, Amen. 奉主之名而求,阿門。 Amen to that (= I certainly agree with that). 我當然同意那個意見。
Word OriginOld English, from ecclesiastical Latin, from Greek amēn, from Hebrew 'āmēn ‘truth, certainty’, used as an adverb to express agreement, and adopted in the Septuagint as a solemn expression of belief or affirmation.
