Lewis & Short

Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

fulvus, a, um, adj. [v. fulgeo], deep yellow, reddish yellow, gold-colored, tawny (mostly poet.): corpora leonum, Lucr. 5, 902; cf. Hor. C. 4, 4, 14: tegmen lupae, Verg. A. 1, 275: canis Lacon, Hor. Epod. 6, 5: cassis equinis jubis, Ov. M. 12, 88: boves, Plin. 22, 5, 5, § 9: vitulus, Hor. C. 4, 2, 60: caesaries, Verg. A. 11, 642: arena, id. ib. 12, 741: aurum, id. ib. 7, 279; cf.: subtemen (auri), Sil. 7, 80: cera, Plin. 21, 14, 49, § 83: color vini, id. 14, 9, 11, § 80: sidera, Tib. 2, 1, 88.
Hence, poet. transf.: Olympus, Val. Fl. 7, 158: lumen, Verg. A. 7, 76: nubes, id. ib. 12, 792 (but not in Lucr. 6, 461, where furva is the right reading): aquila, Verg. A. 11, 751; cf.: ales Jovis, id. ib. 12, 247: nuntia Jovis, Cic. poët. Leg. 1, 1, 2: virgae, i. e. withering stalks, Ov. M. 10, 191.
Hence, subst.: fulvum, i, n., reddish-yellow, Sol. 17, 5.
