Latin bellua / be:lua "beast" of Celtic origin?
Original language description
In the present contribution the Latin word bellua / be:lua "beast, monster" is etymologized. The traditional derivation from IE *dhwes- "to breathe" is excluded for phonological reasons, since the initial should be f- as in Latin fore:s "door" < *dhwor-. On the other hand, the old comparison with Celtic *bled- "wolf; monster" is acceptable in perspectives of both phonetics and semantics, but only as a (Cis-Alpine?) Celtic loanword.
