"picus" meaning in Latin

See picus in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈpiː.kus/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈpiːkʊs̠] [Classical-Latin], /ˈpi.kus/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈpiːkus] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: From Proto-Italic *pikos, from Proto-Indo-European *(s)peyk- (“woodpecker; magpie”), whence also Latin pīca (“magpie”). Romance evidence points to a form with -cc-, perhaps onomatopoeic and/or influenced by Vulgar Latin *pīccāre (“to strike, sting, peck”) and/or Proto-Germanic *pikkōną (“to pick, peck, prick”). Cf. Vulgar Latin *pīcca (“pick-axe”). Cognate with Umbrian peico (acc.sg.), Sanskrit पिक (piká, “cuckoo”), German Specht (“woodpecker”), Swedish spett (“crowbar, skewer; kind of woodpecker”).
