See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E., more specifically (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Gothic *alut; compare Proto-Germanic *alu. The simplex *ӕлут (*ælut) is preserved in the Georgian borrowing ალუდი (aludi), ლუდი (ludi) and in the Scythian given name from Olbia Ἀλούταγος (Aloútagos), probably meaning “beer brewer”.
