αὐλή

See also: αυλή

Ancient Greek

Most plausibly from Proto-Indo-European *h₂wes- (“pass the night”) (> *h₂ews- by Schwebeablaut) + *-leh₂: it has been suggested that Tocharian A olar (“companion”) and Tocharian B aulāre are cognate and contain the same suffix. Related to αὖλις (aûlis), ἰαύω (iaúō), ἄεσα (áesa), as well as Old Armenian աւթ (awtʻ, “place to spend the night”).^[1] Despite similar phonetics, apparently unrelated to αὐλός (aulós, “hollow tube, pipe, flute”).^[2]
