editEtymology 1
editThe origin is uncertain.
Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *Hl̥-d- and cognate with Old Norse úldna (“to decay, rot”), Old High German oltar and Latin alga.
Alternatively, from Proto-Indo-European *sal- (“dirty, grey”) with cognates in Old Irish sal (“dirt, filth”), Old High German salo (“dirty”). See also աղօտ (ałōt).
Ačaṙean derives from Proto-Indo-European *ard-, with Ancient Greek ἄρδα (árda, “dirt”) as the only cognate. For the irregular sound change (*արտ (*art) is expected) he points to նեղ (neł), which has been compared to Old English nearu.[1][2]
There is an alternative form աղծ- (ałc-) found in compounds.
