Etimoloji
Inherited from Proto-Slavic *mydlo, from *myti (“to wash”). By surface analysis, мыть (mytʹ) + -ло (-lo). For the term and помо́и (pomói) relation with мыть (mytʹ), compare typologically Ancient Greek ῥύμμα (rhúmma) < ῥύπτω (rhúptō, “to cleanse, to wash”). Also compare σμῆμα (smêma) < σμάω (smáō). Also compare English lye << Proto-Indo-European *lewh₃-.
