salio

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): [ˈsa.li.oː]
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): [ˈsaː.li.o]

Inherited from Proto-Italic *saljō, from Proto-Indo-European *sel- (“to spring”). Cognates include Ancient Greek ἅλλομαι (hállomai) and Sanskrit सरति (sárati).

1. (intransitive) to leap, jump, bound

   Synonyms: trānsiliō, prōsiliō, assiliō, exsiliō, īnsultō, exsultō

2. (intransitive) to spring forth, flow down
3. (transitive) (of male animals) to mount for copulation

The passive forms of this verb are very rare, pertaining only to the transitive sense of "mounting":
