Where this word comes from

From Proto-Finnic *vajëltadak (compare Karelian vajeltua, Votic vajõlta, Võro vaeldama), probably derived from *vajëh (from which vaihtaa (“to change”) was also derived; thus this word may have originally meant “to change” as well, shifting → “to change one's location” → “to wander, roam”).
