Prūsų kalbos etimologijos žodynas Vytautas Mažiulis Mokslo ir enciklopedijų leidykla 3 1996 *palwas pale yellow πολιός gray, grizzled, grizzly pullus dark-colored, darlk gray, dusky *palvē grayish, brownish

adj a-stem pale, gray, fallow Possibly from Proto-Indo-European *polH-wós, from root *pelH-(‘pale, gray’). In this case, cognate with Latin pullus (‘dark-colored, darlk gray, dusky’), Ancient Greek πολιός (poliós, ‘gray, grizzled, grizzly’) and πελιός (peliós, ‘black and blue, livid; dark, dull’), and Proto-Balto-Slavic *palwas (‘pale yellow’). Mažiulis 1996 explicitly connects Old Prussian *palvē (Proto-Baltic *palva-;, ‘grayish, brownish’) and favors a PIE verbal root *(s)p(H)el- ‘shine weakly, shimmer’.
