Best Answer

Other than English, the dollar bill contains three phrases in Latin. All three are part of the Great Seal of the United States, which is depicted on the back of the bill.

The reverse of the seal is on the left side of the bill (the pyramid.) It has two Latin phrases:

  1. "Annuit coeptis" which translates to "He has approved of the endeavors." The "He" in this case is taken to be God
  2. ""Novus ordo seclorum" which is translated as "The new secular order."

The right section of the bill depicts the obverse (or front) of the Great Seal. Though it's a bit hard to see on the dollar, the banner that the eagle is holding in its beak reads "E pluribus unum" or "From many come one."
