Etymology

Either from a Vulgar Latin root *adiliare, from Latin ilia or more likely from a Vulgar Latin root *adoliāre, from Latin adolēre, present active infinitive of adoleō (“burn; hence turn to vapor”), possibly through an early Romanian form *aduia. Another theory suggests a Latin root *aduliāre, from adulārī.
