From Proto-Indo-European *h₂olyo- . Cognates include Old Irish uile and Welsh holl .
Alternatively, from Proto-Indo-European *solw-yo- , from, *solh₂- ( “ whole ” ) .
A contamination of both is possible.
For the semantic correspondence “being alive” : “wholeness” compare Turkish sağ ( “ alive; whole ” ) .
Urartian 𒌌𒄖(𒌑)𒊺 ( ul-gu-ú-še or ul-gu-še /ulguše/ , “ health, well-being, the being alive ” ) may be borrowed from Proto-Armenian .
