Ferrum is Latin found on the Periodic Table. I looked up "ferrum" and it is the Latin word for "sword." a sward is made out of iron so for the periodic table it translates into iron.The symbol is Fe.
The word for sword in Latin is 'gladio'. So you're getting something wrong.
Ferrum probably means Iron, for ferrum is where iron gets the Fe (which is its symbol).
