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.

unctŭlus, a, um, adj. dim. [unctus, from ungo], besmeared, anointed.

  1. I. Adj.: circumtonsi et terti atque unctuli, Varr. ap. Non. 179, 8.
  2. * II. Subst.: unctŭlum, i, n., a little ointment, App. M. 3, p. 139, 2.
