The Latin equivalent of the English command 'Hold them back' is Eos retinere. In the word-by-word translation, the demonstrative pronoun 'eos' means 'them'. It's the masculine plural of 'is' in the accusative case. The verb 'retinere' means 'hold back'. It's formed from the prefix 're-' for 'back' and the verb 'tenere' for 'to hold'.
