Westeners tied "slav" to "slave" - as "Indian" for Native Americans. Inside the etnich group, slovo ("word") denoted "people who speak (the same language)", in contrast to němci, foreign people "mumbling, murmuring people" Greeks defined foreigners "barbarians", babblers. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/Slav https://www.belleslettres.eu/content/wortkunde/sklave-slawe.php https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/slav
