"lupus" meaning in Latin

See lupus in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ˈɫʊ.pʊs] [Classical-Latin], [ˈluː.pus] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: From Proto-Italic *lukʷos, from Proto-Indo-European *wĺ̥kʷos (“wolf”), with a metathesis of *wĺ̥- to *lú-. The shift of *kʷ to /p/ can be explained as a borrowing from an Osco-Umbrian language, where the change is regular. Another example of a borrowing with that shift is popīna. Cognates include Ancient Greek λύκος (lúkos), Sanskrit वृक (vṛka), Old English wulf, and Old Church Slavonic влькъ (vlĭkŭ). Doublet of lycos and Lycus; not cognate to Latin vulpēs (“fox”).
