词根sav, salv= to save 救助

词根sav, salv= to save 救助

英语词根salv-（安全，救助）源自拉丁语形容词salvus（安全的）和动词salvare（救助，使安全），与词根salu-/salut-（健康）有亲缘关系。如果我们追根溯源，可以发现，这两个拉丁词根和希腊词根holo-（完整，全部）都源自原始印欧语词根*sol-（完整的）。

来自词根salv-（安全，救助）的单词有salvage（打捞，救助），salvation（拯救、救赎、超度）等。实际上，我们熟悉的单词save（拯救）、safe（安全的）都衍生自拉丁词根salv-（安全，救助），只不过经由法语进入英语时拼写发生变化，中间的字母l脱落了。
