See moltos in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Unknown. Multiple theories exist. * Pokorny derived this from *melh₂- (“to crush”), the semantic distance resolvable under the assumption that castration was done with a crushing method. * Matasović, unsatisfied with previous theories, assumes a borrowing from a non-Indo-European substrate language.
