"alvus" meaning in Latin

See alvus in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [ˈaɫ.wʊs] [Classical-Latin], [ˈal.vus] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *h₂ewlósder. Proto-Italic *aulos? Proto-Indo-European *h₂el-der. Proto-Indo-European *-wósder. Proto-Italic *alwos? Latin alvus There are two competing theories: * From Proto-Italic *aulos with metathesis, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ewlós, nominal form of *h₂ewlo- (“tube, hole, channel”). Cognate with Ancient Greek αὐλός (aulós), Lithuanian avilỹs. Same metathesis seen in parvus - παῦρος (paûros). For the semantics compare Old Armenian փոր (pʻor, “cavity, hollow; belly”). * Or from Proto-Italic *alwos, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂el- (“to nourish”) + *-wós.
