Etymology

Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gleh₁y- (“sticky, liquid”), as in glynu, with a prefix equivalent to er-.[1]

Formerly, erlyn- (or erlin-) was the stem with -d acting as a verbnoun ending (as in bod, yfed, cymryd, etc.; see Proto-Celtic *-tus).[2] In Modern Welsh, erlyn (“to prosecute”) is used as the verbnoun for a separate verb.[3]
