"Admiral Admiral is one of the highest ranks in some navies, and in many navies is the highest rank. It is usually abbreviated to ""Adm"" or ""ADM"". The rank is generally thought to have originated in Sicily from a conflation of , ""amīr al-baḥr"", ""commander of the sea"", with Latin ""admirabilis"" (""admirable"") or ""admiratus"" (""admired""), although alternative etymologies derive the word directly from Latin, or from the Turkish military and naval rank miralay. The French version - ""Amiral"" without the additional ""d"" - tends to add evidence for the Arab origin. In the Commonwealth and the U.S., a ""full"" admiral"

Although the French economist Jean Monnet had used the phrase later in 1940, he was urged by Felix Frankfurter not to use it again so Roosevelt could make use of it in his speeches. Franklin Roosevelt has since been credited with the phrase. The phrase was suggested by top Roosevelt advisor Harry Hopkins. Yet another account has it that Roosevelt borrowed the phrase from Detroit auto"

The word ""admiral"" has today come to be almost exclusively associated with the highest naval rank in most of the world's navies, equivalent to the army rank of (full) general. However, this wasn't always the case; for example, in some European countries prior to the end of World War II, admiral was the third highest naval rank after general admiral and grand admiral.

Nevertheless, ""imperator"" was used relatively consistently as an element of a Roman ruler's title throughout the principate (derived from ""princeps"","

Armill An armill or armilla (from the Latin: ""armillae"" remains the plural of armilla) is a type of medieval bracelet, or armlet, normally in metal and worn in pairs, one for each arm. They were usually worn as part of royal regalia, for example at a coronation, or perhaps as part of especially grand liturgical vestments. They may have been worn outside ceremonies. Armillae presumably descend from the Ancient Roman armilla, which was a form of military decoration. These in turn seem to have developed"

English heraldry uses the terms ""armed"" and ""langued"" for the teeth, claws and tongue of heraldic beasts, thus ""mornée"" might be translated as ""dis-armed"". Thus the English ""martlet"" is not the same heraldic creature as the French """"merlette"""". The arms of the Valence family, Earls of Pembroke show one of the earliest uses of the martlet to difference them from their parent house of Lusignan. Their arms were orled (bordered) with martlets, as can be seen on the enamelled shield of the effigy of William"
