bawlv.

Brit.

/bɔːl/, U.S.

/bɔl/,

/bɑl/

Forms: 1500s baull, bool, 1500s–1600s ball, baule, 1500s–1700s baul, Middle English– bawl, 1600s bal, bawle.

Etymology: Found only from 15th cent. Probably < medieval Latin baulāre to bark as a dog, ‘latrare, et est proprie canum’ (Du Cange); also in an 11th- or 12th-century list of cries of animals ‘canum latrare, seu baulare, vulpium gannire,’ etc. The Promp. Parv. has ‘baffyn as houndys, baulo, baffo, latro,’ and the earliest English instances refer to dogs. But compare Icelandic baula, Swedish böla to low like a cow, pointing to an Old Norse verb *baula. < baula a cow. In any case, originally applied to the voice of animals; hence more or less vituperative as applied to human utterance.

†1. intransitive. To bark or howl as a dog, to give mouth or tongue as an animal.
