Hi everyone. I'm looking for some helping getting an accurate translation for American Truth or America's Truth. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't think Google translate is doing a very good job.
 
Not sure if the name "America" would actually be any different in Latin.
But for "Truth" I can provide the word veritas.

I'm sure that others can confirm/correct this. :)

Veritas americana.

In political science or history you might see the term Pax americana (1945-1973 or thereabouts)....a takeoff on Pax Romana.
Also in biological taxonomy you will see americanus,-a, -um.

I would never take Google Translate as the last word on anything. Although it is better than it once was. Not very good for Latin or Greek though. I'm sure its Greek database is pitched toward Modern.

What does it refer to? Is it something only true in America, like 'White' Zinfandel with ice cubes being an acceptable drink, or believing that Donald Trump would be a better leader than, oh I don't know, Donald Duck?

Thanks for the replies...So really it's referring to a website I'm currently designing whose focus would be clearing up misinformation in the current American discourse. So it may be the equivalent to Truth in America. My first instinct was Americus Verum...I think it sounds cool. Don't judge me..I don't know latin. hahaha But I wasn't sure if that would be an accurate phrase.

Definitely not, and we are judging ;)
