What Hebrew word corresponds to the greek word christ and what does the word literally mean?
The Hebrew word is משיח (pronounced mah-shee-ahkh). It literally means anointed one. In ancient times, the word referred to any Jewish king or priest.
It's not an exact correspondence though, because the word Christ only refers to Jesus in modern use. But the word Messiah or Mashiach is a more broad term.

The Vulgate (Latin Bible) was translated by St. Jerome in the 4th Century.The Jewish books, what we call as Old Testament in The Bible, were translated into Koine Greek, called Septuagint, a few centuries before Jesus Christ, and hence existed Greek and Hebrew versions of the same text by the time of Jesus.Some of the Hebrew scriptures were lost in the destruction of the Jewish Temple in AD 70. When St. Jerome translated to Latin, he used both Hebrew and Greek versions, and used Greek versions for the lost Hebrew Texts.
