Etymology

[edit]

Of unknown origin, though probably a foreignsubstrate loanword related toulva(“various grass-like or rush-like aquatic plants”). Note also similar dubiously-related forms in Baltic and Germanic with connotations of filth and dirtiness, includingLithuanianel̃mės,almens(“ichor, sanies”), (dialectal)Norwegianul(“moldy”),olga(“to loathe”),elgja(“to fell like vomiting”),ulma(“to get moldy”),Middle Low Germanolm,ulm(“rottenness (esp. of wood)”), andDutchuilig(“moldy (of wood)”).[1] These terms have been tentatively linked to aProto-Indo-European*alg-,*alǵ-(“to be dirty, be slimy; frog; duckweed”); other similar forms include dialectalNorwegianalka(“to dirty, soil”),Norwegianulk(“frog, slime”),Low Germanulk(“frog”). That said, it is possible that the Baltic and Germanic are not related to the Latin, or that all the terms derive from the same substrate.
