volucer

Etymology
From. The masculine nominative singular form is derived by syncope from *wolukris, which probably developed by dissimilation from earlier *wolu-klis or *welu-klis, with a suffix ultimately derived from -*tlis, from, a variant of the zero-grade of the agent suffix. Compare. However, De Vaan considers the origin of the ending *-kris to be uncertain.

Even though the stem of the verb is volā-, this adjective is built on a stem volu- with short /u/, which De Vaan considers unexplained. Sen argues that the stem *welu- was taken from, a derivative of , based on semantic and formal similarity. There is no consensus on the ultimate etymology of, but one hypothesis is that it comes from ; assuming this initial *gʷ is correct, Weiss 2009 reconstructs an earlier stage as *gʷolu-tlis, comparing it to 🇨🇬, which Weiss derives from *garutráḥ, and Schrijver compares it to 🇨🇬.
