Etymology 1


There are different opinions on the origin of this word. Some derive it from Proto-BalticCategory:Latvian terms derived from Proto-Baltic#SALA *sel-, *sal-, from Proto-Indo-EuropeanCategory:Latvian terms derived from Proto-Indo-European#SALA *sel-, a variant of *ser- (“to flow”); in this case, the original meaning would have been “stream, river,” from which “body of water”(cf. Lithuanian sálti (“to flow slowly”)Category:Lithuanian links with redundant target parameters#SALA, Ancient Greek ἕλος (hélos, “swamp”) (< *selos), Sanskrit सरः (sáraḥ, “lake, pond”)Category:Sanskrit terms with non-redundant manual transliterations#SALA, perhaps also Latin insula < *in-sal-, and several river names: Salaca, Salica > Selke in Germany, Salate), then “something inside (a body of water),” “island.” Others derive sala from *ap(i)sala, from a verb meaning “to flow” (cf. Russian о́стров (óstrov, “island”), from Proto-Slavic *o-strovь, so that the original meaning would be “that which is surrounded by flowing (water)”). Still others consider sala to come from Proto-Indo-European *swel- (“to swell”), with as original meaning “(river) silt, deposits, sediments.” Cognates include Lithuanian salàCategory:Lithuanian links with redundant target parameters#SALA; comparable Baltic-Finnic terms (Livonian sala (“island”), Estonian salu (“swamp island”), Finnish salo (“forest island; forest”)) are considered as borrowings from Baltic.[1]
