Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From *bľuti (“to gush, to vomit”) +‎ *-zgati, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰlewH- (“to overflow, to gush”). Possibly stretching back to Proto-Balto-Slavic *bljauzgāˀtei, with cognates Lithuanian bliauzgóti (“to rattle, to babble”), Latvian blauzgêt (“to rattle, to babble”). Further akin to Lithuanian bliaũkšti (“to babble”), Lithuanian blùzginti (“to echo”), Latvian blūžgêt (“to splash”) within Balto-Slavic and to Ancient Greek φλύζω (phlúzō, “to boil up, to gush”), possibly German plauschen (“to blab, to chatter”) within Indo-European.

According to Trubachev, of onomatopoeic origin.
