How to spell save
Save is spelled S-A-V-E.
What it means: To rescue or keep safe from harm.
In a sentence: Let's save the puppy from the rain.
Same family: saves, saved, saving, saver, savings. If you can spell one, the shared part carries to the others.
Where it comes from: “Save” comes from Old French “sauver,” meaning “to make safe,” which itself goes back to the Latin word “salvus,” meaning “unharmed, safe.” This is why “save” can mean both to rescue someone and to keep resources, like time or money, from being wasted.
