phatcatholic Posted December 9, 2005 Posted December 9, 2005 hold on, hold on, FBOP, NMI, and FPO weren't answered yet!! also, "In Hoc Signo" for IHS is incorrect. instead, IHS its the first three letters of Jesus' name in Greek (iota, eta, sigma), with "H" used as the capital of the greek vowel eta. see the [url="http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=I.H.S"][b]Online Etymology Dictionary[/b][/url].. "In Hoc Signo" was one of the meanings that was suggested in the Middle Ages, after the original Greek meaning was forgotten.
