Etymology

Inherited from Proto-Slavic *bъlbъ, from Proto-Indo-European *stl̥b-, an ablaut variant of *stelb (post, pole, jamb) (whence also stilbs, q.v.), from *stel- (to put in a standing position, to erect; standing, immobile, stiff) with an extra b. The semantic evolution was probably: “motionless, stiff” > “surprised, stunned” > “stupid”. Cognates include Old Irish borb (foolish, silly), Latvian stulbs (stupid, dumb) and Latin stultus (foolish, fatuous).
