aprugnus

== Latin == === Alternative forms === aprūnus aprūgineus aprīnus aprīneus === Etymology === Uncertain; from aper + an unclear suffix, Linder (2002) compares its ending with that of caprigenus. See however aprūgineus, which points to *aprūginus. The form aprūnus is also found in the place of aprūgnus place in some editions, it might either stem from a simplification of the gn or stand for an ablaut variant of aprīnus. === Adjective === aprūgnus (feminine aprūgna, neuter aprūgnum); first/second-declension adjective (relational) wild boar (nominalized, feminine) wild boar meat (Can we add an example for this sense?) ==== Declension ==== First/second-declension adjective. === References === === Further reading === “āprūgnus”, in Charlton T.
