In Somno Securitas

In Somno Securitas is the motto of the Association of Anesthesiologists of Great Britan and Ireland (AAGBI). The AAGBI is an association of anesthesiologists that work in Great Britan and in Ireland. This association was created to unify anesthesiologists in those specific areas because of their poor pay rate and little recognition. "In Somno Securitas" translates to "safe in sleep." This motto was put in place when the right to bear arms was granted. It was chosen to communicate to the patients that they are safe and protected. "In Somno Securitas" translates to "safe in sleep" (Wikipedia). It seems like a good translation and is not worded in a confusing way. It also uses easy words in latin that are not hard to translate. For instance, "in" in latin means "in" in english. Easy, right? "Somno" in latin means "sleep" in english. "Insomnia" is a good word to think of to help you remember that definition. "Securitas" in latin translates to "safe" in english. This is where you get the english word "security." All in all, it is a concise and simple motto with an easy meaning to remember.
