etymology, or the origin of words.
One notoriously difficult-to-use word taken up recently by the
Columbia Journalism Review is “salubrious.” Derived from
“salus,” a Latin word for health, salubrious became part of the
English lexicon in the 1500s and is used to describe foods and
medicines that are beneficial to health.

3.  Broader usages include prosperous, comfortable,
pleasant, and attractive.
In modern usage, the word is often used as part of
the phrase “less salubrious” in describing things
that are unsafe, unethical, not laudable, or
downright dangerous. The word is used to
describe less-than-reputable airlines as well as
unforthcoming politicians. Readers unfamiliar with
the exact meaning of “salubrious” may take
incorrect usages in publications such as The
Economist as impetus for even more strained
usages in their own writing.
