Etymology

De Vaan argues that the term is probably a denominative to Proto-Italic *flagros (“burning”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰl̥g-ro-, from *bʰel- (“shine”). Cognate with Latin flamma (“flame, fire”) (< Proto-Italic *flagmā < Proto-Indo-European *bʰl̥g-mh₂-), Ancient Greek φλέγω (phlégō, “I burn”), Sanskrit भ्रज (bhrája, “fire, shining”), Italian brace (“embers, glowing coals”).
