+

+ ==Etymology==

+ It is [[af|la|con-|salūtō|t2=to greet]].^(OLD 2012)^(TLL)^(Wiktionary) [[m|la|salūtō]] is made from [[m|la|salūs|t=health, safety]], which de Vaan treats with [[m|la|salvus|t=whole, safe]]; he traces that to [[itc-pro|*salu-|t=whole, healthy]] and [[ine-pro|*slH-u-|t=whole]].^(de Vaan 2008)

+ Cicero uses it first, of friends greeting one another most warmly in ''De oratore'' and in ''De re publica'', where a man greeted by Scipio and the others sits down next to Laelius.^(TLL)^(OLD 2012)

+

+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ It means to greet, especially of several people greeting one another,^(TLL)^(OLD 2012) and with a predicate to hail someone as something: Cicero says that people greeted a woman not by her stage name but as Volumnia, and Livy has each king hailed as king by his own followers.^(OLD 2012)^(Lewis & Short 1879) Lewis & Short note it is frequent in the historians after the Augustan period.^(Lewis & Short 1879) Stelten gives "salute one another" for Church Latin.^(Stelten 1995)
