"בלויז" meaning in Yiddish

See בלויז in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adjective

Etymology: From Middle High German blōȥ (“naked, bare, unarmed, exposed, wretched”), from Old High German blōz, from Proto-Germanic *blautaz, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰlaw- (“weak, frightened”). Cognate with German bloß (“naked, mere, sole”), Dutch bloot (“bare, naked”), Swedish blott (“merely, just”). The sense “dull” can be derived from “unarmed”. The sense “stupid” can be derived thence or even from “naked” directly; compare German bloßstellen (“to embarrass, stultify”). Therefore influence by Middle High German blœde (“frail, craven”), whence German blöd (“stupid”), is not absolutely necessary, although it does appear likely and would also explain the front vowel in the variant bleyz above.

  "etymology_text": "From Middle High German blōȥ (“naked, bare, unarmed, exposed, wretched”), from Old High German blōz, from Proto-Germanic *blautaz, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰlaw- (“weak, frightened”). Cognate with German bloß (“naked, mere, sole”), Dutch bloot (“bare, naked”), Swedish blott (“merely, just”).\nThe sense “dull” can be derived from “unarmed”. The sense “stupid” can be derived thence or even from “naked” directly; compare German bloßstellen (“to embarrass, stultify”). Therefore influence by Middle High German blœde (“frail, craven”), whence German blöd (“stupid”), is not absolutely necessary, although it does appear likely and would also explain the front vowel in the variant bleyz above.",
