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.

pistillum, i, n., and pistillus, i, m., a pounder, pestle of a mortar, Plaut. Aul. 1, 2, 17: semen sinapis in mortarium conicito et pistillis conterito, Col. 12, 55; Plin. 34, 18, 50, § 169: pistillum grande est, Auct. ap. Non. 221, 5 (yet pastillum appears to be the more correct reading).
