Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *bʰlowdh₂-ó-s, from root *bʰlewdh₂- (‘emaciated, soft’), possibly ultimately derived from bʰel- (‘to blow, swell up’) via bʰlewH- (‘to overflow’). Cognate with Ancient Greek φλυδάω (phludáō) (phludáō, ‘to be soft, weak’). Possibly related to Proto-Germanic *blauþuz (‘soft, weak’).
