Ah, I'm afraid I'm not a latin scholar, Captain. I used a Latin/English dictionary on the net and came up with the following:
pala spade, peel for putting bread in the oven.
rutila a spade, shovel.
Another one gave me rutrum.
For red it gives:
puniceus purple, red.
puniceus reddish.
rubor redeness, blush, modesty, shame, disgrace.
rufus red, ruddy.
rutilus red, golden, auburn.
Gosh, it's almost as bad as English!
"Bury him? And what am I supposed to dig the hole with, Brutus."
"Use the ........, you fool!"

Carpe rutila
Carpe whatever
