Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *aulios, whence also Lithuanian aulỹs (“(bee)hive”), Latvian aũlis (“(bee)hive”), and Old Prussian aulis (“shin(bone)”); from an i-stem derivative of Proto-Indo-European *h₂ewlós, nominalization of *h₂ewlo- (“tube, hole, channel”), to which compare the dialectal meanings “hollow tree” in Slovene and “pipe, opening” in Bulgarian.

Indo-European cognates include Ancient Greek αὐλός (aulós, “tube, pipe, flute; haulm”), αὐλών (aulṓn, “hollow, channel, strait”), Old Armenian ուղի (ułi, “road, path, way”), Hittite (halluwa-, “hollow, pit”) and/or 𒀀𒌑𒇷𒅖 (a-ú-li-iš /⁠aulis⁠/, “tube-shaped organ in the neck”),[1] Latin alvus (“hollow, cavity; trough, hold of a ship”), and dialectal Norwegian aul (“(hollow stalk of) wild angelica”).[2]
