使用する際の注意点

• Semantically connected to the verb fulgeō.
• As a color term, it was considered to be a subset of rūfus (“red”). Marcus Fronto alleged that the color could incline both toward rūfus (“red”) and toward viridis (“verdant”), but unlike flāvus (“blond”), did not include in its formulation albus, implying high saturation.
