"Allow me to correct your Latin: 'Ex Uno Plura (From One, Many).'"

Sorry pal, but there is no such Latin word as "uno." That is Spanish, but of course its root is Latin.

I just remembered!

Uno is the ablative case of unus -a -um. That would make it the object of the preposition "E".

Ever heard of the ablative case? It's what the preposition ex/e takes.
