locuples

語源
Traditionally derived from locus (“place”) and pleō (“to fill”). However, Nussbaum (2016) rejects a connection to locus (“place”) for semantic reasons, namely that locus does not refer to possessed land in particular. He instead connects the element locu- with Indo-Iranian terms like Sanskrit राशि (rāśi, “quantity, heap, number”) and reconstructs Proto-Indo-European *loḱis as ancestral to the two, making a compound "abundance-filled" in Latin.

形容詞
locuplēs (genitive locuplētis, comparative locuplētior, superlative locuplētissimus); third-declension one-termination adjective
- possessing large, landed property
- rich, wealthy
-
8 CE, Ovid, Fasti 5.279-281:
-
‘cētera luxuriae nōndum īnstrūmenta vigēbant,
aut pecus aut lātam dīves habēbat humum;
hinc etiam locuplēs, hinc ipsa pecūnia dicta est.’-
“The other instruments of luxury were not yet thriving: a rich man had either a herd or wide land; hence also [the word for] ‘wealthy’, [and] for this reason ‘money’ itself is named.”
(The poetic voice is that of Flora (mythology). An owner of much land was ‘loci plenus’ or ‘full of land’, hence ‘locuples’; use of ‘pecunia’ as a word for ‘money’ came from the value of a ‘pecus’, a herd or flock of cattle, sheep or other livestock.)
