Franco-Provençal[edit]

Alternative forms[edit]

alô, alâ

Etymology[edit]

The all- forms derive from Early Medieval Latin alāre (attested in the Reichenau Glosses). This verb, a cognate of French aller and Friulian lâ, has traditionally been explained as deriving from Latin ambulāre via or together with amblar (compare Old French ambler, Italian ambiare, Romanian umbla), but this explanation is phonologically problematic. Several theories have been put forth since the 17th century to explain how ambulare could have become alar in Franco-Provençal and aller in French.^[1] Since at least the 18th century, some have suggested that French aller, and thus Franco-Provençal alar as well, derive not from Latin but from Celtic,^[2]^[3] Gaulish *aliu, from Proto-Celtic zero grade *ɸal-: compare Welsh elwyf (“I may go”), Cornish ellev (“I may go”), from full grade *ɸel- (see mynd for more). See French aller (“to go”).

Latin vādō (“go”) supplies the present tense forms and īre, present active infinitive of eō, supplies the future and conditional.
