> drunjus seems to have as much vocal association as saggweis, though
the latter has been shown in sense of "vocal music". Is there a more
neutral "noise" or "sound" word?
A bit speculative, but ON hljóð covers both the sense "hearing" (like
Go. hliuma, man.), "silence" (in which to listen, to give someone a
hearing); and "sound". Could it be that Go. hliuma had this range of
meanings too? Or we could reconstruct *hliuþ, na. "sound".
