alua

Radestrian

Etymology

From Middle Radestrian alura, from Old Radestrian alwor, inherited from Proto-Radic *alɣor, from *alèšir (“autumn”) + *-ɣor (augmentative), equivalent to alșa + -ua. The lack of metathesis in Old Radestrian is likely by analogy with Old Radestrian alešre or influence from Old Lusetian alɣor. The expected reflex would be **voà.
