Middle English

Noun

beli

1. Alternative form ofbely

Romanian

Etymology

Probably fromLatinvellere,present active infinitive ofvellō,with a change in conjugation. Traditionally, it was usually thought to be from Slavicbĕliti(“to whiten”);however, this presents a problem with semantics and there is already another word in Romanian derived from this source,bili,that preserved the original meaning.Compare also Aromanianbilescu.
