Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/podьlъ
Proto-Slavic
Alternative reconstructions
- *podlъ (possibly, if originally West Slavic)
Etymology
Uncertain. May have had:
- West Slavic origin: From *podъ (“bottom”) + *-lъ, originally implying “low, basely”, later spread to East and South Slavic. Such an origin is synchronically improbable for non-Western branches since there Common *-dl- is rendered as plain *-l-.
- Common Slavic origin: From *podъ (“under”) + *-ьlъ, with the same suffix as Proto-Slavic *světьlъ (“bright”).
- Deadverbial[1]: From Proto-Slavic *podьlě (“along, beside”), equivalent to *po- + *dьlъ (“length”). Compare Czech vedle (“beside, alongside”) → Czech vedlejší (“minor, secondary”) for similar development.
Adjective
*podьlъ[1]
- inferior
- low
- Synonyms: *dolьnъ, *nizъkъ
- → dishonest, disrespectful, deceitful (for act/behavior)
- → vile, despicable, wicked (for person)
