Latin
Etymology
Possibly from Proto-Indo-European *stag- (“to seep drip”), source of Ancient Greek στάζω (stázō, “to drip”). Conversely, possibly related to Ancient Greek τέναγος (ténagos).
Pronunciation
- (Classical) IPA(key): /ˈstaɡ.num/, [ˈs̠t̪äŋnʊ̃ˑ]
- (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /ˈstaɲ.ɲum/, [ˈst̪äɲːum]

Usage notes
Although often mentioned in dictionaries, the use of the spelling stagnum as a form of stannum (“tin”) is unattested in Classical or Late Latin. It is perhaps a later Italianate respelling of that word.
