Proto-Italic[edit]
Alternative reconstructions[edit]
- *lowaō[1]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Indo-European *(le)lówh₃ti (“to wash”), from the root *lewh₃- (“to wash”).[1][2]
The reason for the unrounding of presumed original *o to *a is uncertain; perhaps *lawa- was extracted from prefixed compounds in which it was unstressed (*X́-low(a)-e-) and the diphthong *-ow- weakened to *-aw-,[1] but this explanation is not very satisfying. This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term.
