What is latin for cabbage?

The Latin word for cabbage is caput (pronounced "cap-oot").

It's important to note that "caput" can also mean "head" in Latin, and this is where the name for cabbage comes from. Cabbage heads were historically seen as a source of food, hence the association with the word "head".
