bòlna Grammatical information: f. ā Accent paradigm: a Proto-Slavic meaning: `membrane'Page in Trubačev: II 175-177Church Slavic:Russian:Old Russian:Ukrainian:bolóna `membrane, window-pane' [f ā]Czech:blána `film, membrane, web (of water-fowl), sap-wood' [f ā]Slovak:Polish:Old Polish:Lower Sorbian:Slovene:blȃna `membrane, thin skin, parchment' [f ā]Bulgarian:blaná `manure (used as fuel), turf' [f ā]Lithuanian:bálnas `white, having a white back (cattle)' [adj] 3Indo-European reconstruction: bʰolH-neh₂Page in Pokorny: 118Comments: Both Trubačëv and Sɫawski are inclined to derive bolna `membrane, sapwood' and bolna `turf, meadow' from a root meaning `white'. Though the relationship between `membrane' and `white' may not be obvious, the relationship between the usually light-coloured sapwood and `white' is unproblematic. In view of the semantic similarities between `sapwood' and `membrane', the etymology advocated by Trubačëv and Sɫawski may very well be correct. The connection between * bolna `turf, meadow' and * bolto `swamp', where an etymology involving the root for `white' is widely accepted, seems quite plausible.
