Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *plowdʰo- (“lead”), and cognate with Latin plumbum (“lead”) and perhaps connected with Proto-Berber *būldūn.[1]
Rix derives the term from Proto-Indo-European *plewd- (compare Old Irish ·lúaidi (“moves”), Old Norse fleyta),[2] an enlargement of *plew- (“to flow”); however, Matasovic and de Vaan consider the word to be a borrowing from an unknown substrate.[3]
Noun
*ɸloudom n
- lead (metal)
