    There’s not much distinction. Either translation would be appropriate. I’m many years away from high school Latin, but I think the direct translation would be, “out of many, one”. However, that’s awkward in English, so it is often written as “one from many”.

      This is also true. 🤙🏼 Though, to be ahem “pedantic”, the statement above is more accurate as “E Pluribus, Unum” ~ “One From Many”.
