SALIVATED Meaning and
Definition
-
Salivated is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "salivate". The term "salivate" refers to the physiological process by which an individual or animal produces and releases saliva in the mouth. Salivation is a natural bodily response that occurs in response to certain stimuli such as the smell, sight, or thought of food. It is primarily controlled by the salivary glands, which secrete saliva into the oral cavity to aid in the process of digestion.
When an individual or animal has salivated, it means that they have undergone the act of salivating. This can be observed through the presence of excessive saliva in the oral cavity or the act of drooling. Salivation can also be triggered by other factors such as medication, certain medical conditions, or even as a natural reflex response to protect the mouth or throat from foreign bodies.
In a figurative sense, the term "salivated" may also be used to describe a state of intense desire or anticipation for something. This could be in relation to the anticipation of obtaining something pleasurable or satisfying. For example, a person might say that they were "salivating" over the thought of a delicious meal or an upcoming vacation. In this context, "salivated" conveys an intense longing or craving for a particular experience or object.

Etymology of SALIVATED
The word "salivated" is derived from the base word "saliva", which comes from the Latin word "salīva". The Latin term "salīva" referred to the clear, watery fluid produced by the salivary glands in the mouth. It was later transformed into the Latin verb "salivare", which means "to salivate" or "to produce saliva". From Latin, the word was borrowed into English, retaining its original meaning of the production of saliva.
