Etymology

edit

Onomatopoeic. It could be inherited from a Proto-Indo-European *bau- (to bark, to bay), if Ancient Greek βαὺ (baù) and Lithuanian baũbti (to shout, to roar) are viewed as cognates.[1] However, Olander (2020) considers it more likely that these were independent onomatopoeic formations, not genuine cognates.[2]
