What is the Latin word for law?

Answer 1

prosecutor. Habeus Corpus - which stipulates, that the person must be brought before a judge, is latin for the body has. Also Modus Operandi - meaning mode of operation. On the back of the $1 bill right above the All Seeing Eye of Providence it says Annuit Coeptis which means he favors our undertakings, it also says underneath the unfinished pyramid Novus Ordo Seclorum which means new order of the ages, and the banner that the eagle has clutched in its bill says E Pluribus Unum which means out of many one. The seal of the state of Virginia says Sic Semper Tyrannis which means thus always to tyrants. The United States Marine Corps motto is Semper Fidelis which means always faithful. The state Alabama motto is Audemus Jura Nostra Defendere which means we dare to defend our rights. The state of Arkansas motto is Regnat Populus which means the people rule. Back to law Pacta Sunt Servanda which means agreements must be kept, this deals with contracts. Also Jus Cogens which means compelling law. Clausula Rebus Sic Stantibus which means clause things standing, this is basically an escape clause to Pacta Sunt Servanda. I could sit here all day, but I think this is probably enough.
