Uncertain. Varro claims that the term initially described untilled land taken from private use and that its name derives from the word salvus (“saved”). Isidore of Seville connects the term with the verb saliō (“to jump”) and the growth of trees. It has also been connected with Ancient Greek ἄλσος (álsos), although this is unlikely. The philologist Edwin Fay has compared the term to German wald, from *walþuz.
