Alternative reconstructions
- *bǫčati (as per Trubachyev)
Etymology
The onomatopoeic meaning seems to follow Proto-Balto-Slavic *bauketei, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bew- + *-kati (a typical extension of onomatopoeic roots). Cognate with Lithuanian baũkti (“to roar”) and Sanskrit बुक्कति (bukkati, “to bark”).
The grammatical meaning to inflate may be descendant from Proto-Indo-European *bʰew- (“to blow”). Cognate with Proto-Slavic *bujаti (“to grow rampant”)
