"blīwiją" meaning in Proto-Germanic

See blīwiją in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈbliː.wi.jɑ̃/
Etymology: Unknown; possibly from a pre-form of Proto-Indo-European *mliH-wó-s, which appears to be a regional Wanderwort of substrate origin. Compare Ancient Greek μόλῠβδος (mólŭbdos, “lead”), Latin plumbum (“lead”). Older theories tentatively derived the word from *mleh₁y- (“to be weak, weary, tired”); compare *blīþiz (“soft, mild”), and, outside of Germanic, Sanskrit म्लायति (mlā́yati, “to be weary”), Proto-Celtic *mlīnos (“weary, tired”).
