But that [[βόλβιτον]] is euphemistical through the influence of [[βολβός]] (Frisk) is not very convincing either. To derive [[βόλιτον]] from [[βάλλω]], [[βόλος]], and [[βολεών]] [[Düngerhaufen]] leaves the formation unexplained. It is much more natural to assume variation in a Pre-Greek word, which is confirmed by the fact that the suffix <b class="b3">-ιτον</b> is known from there (Fur. 163; further 180, 187; further the [[θ]] and the [[υ]] are typical variations. I wonder whether the variation β/zero, to which Furnée devotes a chapter, derived from a labial [l]: <b class="b2">*balʷ-it-</b>, on which see [[αὖλαξ]] and Beekes, Pre-Greek. - The discussions in Frisk and DELG are examples of the wrong approach of Pre-Greek words: explaining away the characteristics of Pre-Greek.

Die gewöhnliche Annahme, [[βόλιτον]] sei durch progressive Dissimilation aus [[βόλβιτον]] entstanden (Schwyzer 260, Solmsen BphW 1906, 722), ist kaum überzeugend. Eher ist [[βόλβιτον]] eine euphemistische oder scherzhafte Angleichung an [[βολβός]]; die Form der Komödie und der niedrigen Sprache wurde wohl als zu derb empfunden. Für [[βόλιτον]] ist Anknüpfung an [[βάλλω]], [[βόλος]] zu erwägen, vgl. bes. [[βολεών]] [[Düngerhaufen]]. Die Schwierigkeit, die in der nicht aufgeklärten Ableitung liegt, hängt offenbar mit der Volkstümlichkeit des Ausdrucks zusammen.<br />'''Page''' 1,249
