Latin word for "silver" is "argentum"

[edit]

The first paragraph of the article says, the latin word for "silver" would be "argentea". That's wrong. At least the main and most used word for "silver" in old Latin is/was "argentum". https://www.oxfordscholarlyeditions.com/page/the-oxford-latin-dictionary . The mentioned word "argentea" means "the silver one" (for instance "urbs argentea" means "the silver city"). 2A02:810D:A33F:F444:C54B:FF0F:5371:AF64 (talk) 18:43, 16 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
