Oh, Xan, look, don't get sick, or sentence with malice; watch out, because you are losing the soul

From Old Galician-Portuguese alma, from Latin anima. The dialectal form ialma contains an antihiatic sandhi semi-vowel generated in the usual expression a alma, "the soul". Doublet of ánima.

Several possibilities:
* From Sanskrit अम्ल (amla, “sour”), but its plant name usage is for wood-sorrel.
* From Sanskrit अमल (amala, “immaculate, white, shining; emblic, amla”), आमलक (āmalaka), आमलकी (āmalakī, “emblic”), widely passed into Iranian and via Arabic أَمْلَج (ʔamlaj) into European.
* From Sanskrit आम्र (āmra, “mango”), also widely passed, but reflects instead with -mb-, exemplarily Arabic أَنْبَج (ʔanbaj).
* Ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ébōl, the same root whence also English apple, with the immediate source perhaps being Tocharian .
* From *āl + Latin malum.
* From *a(ː)lima, from *almïla, as attested in Karakhanid, in turn possibly cognate with Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon, “apple”).


alma

(dialectal) Alternative form of àimma (“weapon”)

→ Zoogocho Zapotec: angl

rising of hind legs in violent protest, rage, or bad temper (as of horses)
