Etymology
[edit]Disputed:
- From Proto-Albanian *delwa, from Proto-Indo-European *ǵʰelh₃- (“gleam, yellow”), a tabooistic substitute of the original *sóh₂wl̥, based on a color objective. Cognate with Sanskrit हरि (hari), Latin helvus, Lithuanian žalias.[1]
- From Proto-Indo-European *sh₂wélyos (“sun”), from the oblique stem of *sóh₂wl̥. For the development of the initial compare djersë (“sweat”) from *sweyd-, and dergjem (“lie ill”), from mediopassive Proto-Indo-European *sworgʰéyeti, from *swergʰ- (“watch over, worry”).
