Etymology 2[edit]

From *bʰel- (“to blow”) +‎ *-eh₁-.

This may be a specialization of the root for "to cry". LIV reconstructs a single root meaning "to howl".[3]

Root[edit]

*bʰleh₁-[4]

  2. to blow
Reconstruction notes[edit]

The Latin stem flā- may be from the zero-grade *bʰl̥h₁-, resulting in a root *flā- from which the other Latin forms were derived analogically.
