[sc. Someone] speaking [lalw=n] with difficulty [mo/gis].

Greek original · Adler’s text

Μογγιλάλος· μόγις λαλῶν.

Betacode

*moggila/los: mo/gis lalw=n.

Notes

Perhaps because of an actual speech impediment. See in any event (e.g.) Isaiah 35.6 LXX, and Mark 7.32 (web address 1). Better spelled with single gamma, mogila/los.
The etymology is mu 1181 plus lambda 80.
