Wasn't SCUMM originally the script _compiler_? Although in the case
where a language only has one compiler, this distinction does become
rather vague... :-)
In a comparison with Java (the language):
SCUMM <-> javac
SPUTM <-> java (the interpreter)
Or maybe I'm just raving. That happens sometimes. ;-)
