Looking for a little help in latin

I'm not a student of latin, but I'd like to make the phrase "Strength in Pairs" into what most captures the intent of that language...

thanks all.
 
I don't know latin but I was curious as to the translation myself. So I whipped out my google-fu.

The English word ?Strength " can be translated into Latin in many different ways, according to its different meaning.

So here are these translations:

1-"VIRTUS ", if " strength " means "bravery" ,"gallantry", ?valour?.

2-"FORTITUDO" or ?AUDACIA? , ?ANIMUS?, if " strength " means "courage" as opposed to 'fear'.

3-"IMPERIUM "or ?VIRES? , if " strength " means "military strength ".

4-"VIS "or ?ROBUR?, if " strength " means "brute force", ?violence?.

5-POTENTIA? or ?POTESTAS?, if ?strength? means ?power?.

6-?FIRMITAS?, if ?strength? means ?firmness?.

All these Latin words are in the nominative case, of course.
Latin in fact is an inflectional language with five declensions and six cases and therefore VIRTUS; FORTITUDO, IMPERIUM, VIS, etc. can have different endings, according to the context of the phrase.

"___ in Par" should be your final phrase

I'd go with potentia, the english "strenght" in this case means power me thinks.
