ani moser nafshi

I found in the back of my mincha siddur that I leave at work a kavannah for saying Amen in kadish.
It points out that אמן = אני מוסר נפשי - Amen is an acrostic for I willingly sacrifice my soul.

I never heard that before and it's wild. I always wondered what else Amen meant besides אל מלך נאמן.
