      μυοσωτίς […] Ἄφροι λαυαθθαλβάθ (var. λαυαθ θαλβαθ, λαυαθολαβατ, λαυαθθλαβατ, λαβοθ λαβαθ)
      muosōtís […] Áphroi lauaththalbáth (var. lauath thalbath, lauatholabat, lauaththlabat, laboth labath)

      Others translate: 𐤋𐤄𐤁𐤕 𐤋𐤁𐤕 f (lhaḇaṯ laḇaṯ, literally “white flame”), which is botanically unwarranted; note also the other textual occurrence of the same base noun for Etruscan honeysuckle; apparently a plant name with masculine collective and feminine singulative.
