The first question is whether the word has the same root as [[βλαδύς]] (q.v.). The <b class="b3">ἀ-</b> must then have been added after the privative formations (which always express some lack), but this is not very probable; influence of [[ἀμαλός]] is not very likely. - The form seems identical with Lat. [[mollis]] (< <b class="b2">*moldu̯is</b>) [[soft]], Skt. <b class="b2">mr̥dú-</b> id. Arm. [[meɫk]] [[weak]], [[soft]] shows no initial laryngeal for this group (Pok. 718). The absence of prothesis could point to substratal origin, but there are no other indications for this. - [[μέλδομαι]] [[to smelt]] is hardly cognate because of its meaning. However, it has a variant [[ἀμέλδειν]] showing the same problem as [[ἀμαλδύνω]] \/ [[βλαδύς]]. In this case we are certain of cognate forms with <b class="b2">s-</b>, OHG [[smelzan]]; does this point to <b class="b2">h₂m-</b>\/<b class="b2">sm-</b>? The question has not been solved. - [[μαλθακός]], [[μαλακός]], [[ἀμαλός]] and [[ἀμβλύς]] differ too much to be useful. Not here [[βλέννα]] and [[μύλη]]. | ||
