salio

Latin. RFV of the usage note: "passive forms (from the meaning of mounting) are mostly unattested". I contend that the verb is not attested in the passive at all. All the attestations I can find for this verb's passive forms talk about salt, which looks like a case of confusion between the two saliōs. Ping @GuitarDudeness who added this note.

@This, that and the other: from L&S references Varr.R.R.2,2,14 has "saliri" and Ov.A.A.2,485 has "salitur". --GuitarDudeness (talk) 20:49, 7 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! I suspect L&S's "Act." label threw me off - it of course means "transitive", not "active voice". This, that and the other (talk) 01:36, 8 April 2022 (UTC)
