I know what the word santi means (basically everything and anything that has to do with happiness), but what language does it come from? I'm thinking Italian... I used to know, but now I have no idea.

if you are talking about "espiritu santi", its Latin and it means "holy spirit"
a religious thing.
santi is holy or righteous.

"Santi" is definitively Italian and it's the plural of the noun "Santo" that's in English "Saint" hence "Santi" means "Saints". Il giorno di Tutti i Santi is All Saints' day.
Used as an adjective (still at the plural,in Italian the number of the noun modifies the adjective) it means "holy".-
Holy Years is Anni Santi.
In Latin (as per first answerer Crissy) is not Santi but Sancti.

Yes, santi is Italian and would mean Seants in English.

I think the asker is thinking of Sanskrit शांतिः śāntiḥ "peace"

Is it possible you mean "shanti" which is Sanskrit for "peace"? Many mantras end with it, and it can itself be a mantra.
