Latin

Etymology

Unknown, possibly from a Celtic/Gaulish word;[1] the common derivation from saliō (to leap) has been dismissed as folk etymology. An equation with Proto-Slavic *sòmъ (catfish) by Preobraženskij[2] has not been well-received by succeeding Slavists; neither is Finnish sampi (sturgeon) likely related.
