"salaputium" meaning in Latin

See salaputium in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Borrowed from Oscan; the breakdown of this otherwise unattested Oscan word would be *sal- (“salt”) + *pū- (“to purify”) + *-t- (root noun suffix for laryngeal-final roots) + *-iom (abstract suffix). The compound is a metaphor for how refined one's own wit ("salt") may be. The -a- between the first two elements is regular in Oscan to break up word-medial consonant clusters.
