amen means "I agree". I believe its roots are latin, however, I am no expert in ancient languages,

The Arabic root means "So be it; truly"

Online etymology has:

O.E., from L.L. amen, from Gk. amen, from Heb., "truth," used adverbially as an expression of agreement verily, surely, absolutely in the same sense,

From Semitic root a-m-n "to be trustworthy, confirm, support." Used in O.E. only at the end of Gospels.

As an expression of concurrence after prayers, it is recorded from early 13th century.
