# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Füllsel

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Füllsel. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Füllsel, neuter, ‘stuffing,’ from the equivalent late Middle High German vülsel, neuter; a derivative of voll with modification; for the suffix -sel, from Old High German isal, Gothic isl, see Rätsel.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Fähre

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Fähre. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Fähre, feminine, from the equivalent Middle High German vęre, vęr, feminine, neuter, ‘ferry’; compare Dutch veer (English ferry is borrowed from Old Icelandic ferja, feminine, ‘ferry’). Also akin to Old High German farm, Middle High German varm, ‘skiff, ferry,’ and Old High German fęrid, neuter, ‘navigium'; like Ferge, connected with fahren. See Praam.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Föhre

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Föhre. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Föhre, feminine, ‘fir,’ from Middle High German vorhe, Old High German forha, feminine, ‘pine-tree’; corresponding to Anglo-Saxon furh, feminine, English fir (Middle English firre, formed from Danish fyr), Old Icelandic fura, feminine, ‘fir’; Gothic *faúrhus, feminine, is wanting. If the initial f is to be regarded as in vier related to Latin quattuor, Föhre may be connected with Latin quercus, ‘oak’; for the change of meaning Eiche and Tanne might be compared. In earlier Modern High German Ferch, ‘oak,’ is also recorded once, and is akin to Old High German vereh-eih, Lombardic fereha, ‘æsculus.’ Thus the connection between Föhre and quercus (pre-Teutonic qṛku-) is certain. In any case, Feuer is not a cognate. Fichte, Birke, Buche, Föhre are the few names of trees whose existence can be traced beyond Teutonic. Compare also Kiefer.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Füllen

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Füllen. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Füllen, neuter, from the equivalent Middle High German vülîn, Old High German fulîn, neuter, besides Middle High German vüle, Old High German fulî, neuter, ‘foal’; for the affix -în-, denoting the young of animals, see under Schwein. Based upon Fohlen (Goth fula); hence *ful-ein, neuter has to be assumed in Gothic; compare Middle Low German völen, Dutch veulen, Old Icelandic fyl. Another derivative of ful- is Old High German fulihha, Middle High German vülhe, feminine, ‘filly,’ pointing to Gothic *fuliki.

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Erde

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Erde. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Erde, feminine, ‘earth, ground, soil, world,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ërde, Old High German ërda, feminine; a word common to Teutonic; compare Gothic airþa, Old Icelandic jǫrð, Anglo-Saxon eorðe, English earth, Dutch aarde, Old Saxon ërtha, feminine, ‘earth,’ To the dental derivative ër-þô, Old High German ëro, ‘earth,’ also belongs; so too Greek ἔρ-αὗε, ‘to earth,’ and perhaps Latin arvum, ‘arable land’ (Anglo-Saxon eard), as well as the old Aryan root ar, ‘to plough’; see Acker, Art. —
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Erker

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Erker. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Erker, masculine, ‘bow, projection (of a building), balcony,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ärker, erker, masculine; the latter is formed from Middle Latin arcora (a late plural of Lit. arcus, ‘bow’)?.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Erle

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Erle. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Erle, feminine, ‘alder,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ęrle, Old High German ęrila, ęlira (to this is allied Modern High German Elritze, ‘minnow,’ Old High German ęrlinc, literally ‘elder fish’?). Compare Low German eller, Dutch els (Modern High German Elsbeere, ‘wild service-berry’), Anglo-Saxon alor, English alder, Old Icelandic ǫlr, elrer, elre; Gothic *alisa (*aluza) appears in Spanish alisa, ‘alder,’ French alize, ‘wild service-berry.’ The change of the originally Old High German ęlira to ęrila is analogous to Gothic waírilôs compared with Anglo-Saxon wëleras, ‘lips’ (see Essig). Cognates of Erle, like those of Buche, Birke, &c., are found in the non-Teutonic languages. Compare Old Slovenian jelĭcha, Latin alnus (for *alsnus), ‘alder.’ Compare Ulme.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ermel

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ermel. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ermel, masculine, ‘sleeve,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ęrmel. Old High German ęrmilo, armilo, masculine; diminutive of Arm. Compare the diminutive form of Faust, Middle High German viustelinc, ‘mitten,’ also Middle High German vingerlîn, ‘ring (worn on the finger),’ diminutive of Finger, English thimble, diminutive of thumb.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Erdbeere

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Erdbeere. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Erdbeere, feminine, ‘strawberry,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ërtbęr, Old High German ërtbęri, neuter; perhaps not really a compound of Erde, but of Old Saxon erda, ‘honey-flower, common balm’; yet Swedish jordbär, tells in favour of a compound of Erde.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ereignis

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ereignis. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ereignis, neuter, ‘event, occurrence,’ for an earlier eröugnis from Middle High German eröugen, Old High German ir-ougen, ‘to show.’ Old High German ougen, Gothic augjan, ‘to show,’ are derivatives of Auge. Hence eröugnis means literally ‘what is shown, what can be seen.’ The spelling Ereignis, found even in the 16th century, was due to the corruption of a word no longer understood.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ernte

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ernte. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ernte, feminine, ‘harvest,’ from the equivalent Middle High German ęrne, feminine, like Modern High German Hüfte, from the equivalent Middle High German hüffe, plural of huf; Middle High German erne (Franconian and Alemannian ärn), a plural used as a singular, is related similarly to Old High German aran, ‘harvest,’ which, like Gothic asans, ‘harvest, autumn,’ is connected with a root as, ‘to work in the fields,’ widely diffused in Old Teutonic. Compare Gothic asneis (Old High German ęsni, Anglo-Saxon ęsne), ‘day-labourer,’ Old Icelandic ǫnn (from *aznu), feminine, ‘work, season for tillage’; akin to Old High German arnôn, ‘to harvest’ (Anglo-Saxon earnian, equivalent to English to earn, Old Icelandic árna?), Middle High German asten, ‘to cultivate.’ Probably Latin annôna (for *asnôna), ‘produce of corn,’ belongs to the Teutonic root as.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Erbse

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Erbse. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Erbse, feminine, ‘pea,’ from the equivalent Middle High German arcweiȥ, ęrweiȥ, ęrwiȥ, feminine, Old High German araweiȥ, arwîȥ, feminine; corresponding to Old Low German ęrit, Dutch erwt, ert, Old Icelandic ertr, plural. The cognates are probably borrowed, as is indicated by the similarity in sound to Greek ἐρέβινθος and ὄροβος, ‘chick-pea’ (see Almosen); compare also Latin ervum, ‘bitter vetch,’ akin to the equivalent Anglo-Saxon earfe. Direct adoption from Greek or Latin is impossible; the way it was introduced cannot be discovered. Probably Erbse is one of the words which Greek and Teutonic have obtained from the same source, as in the case of Hanf. In English, Latin pisum (French pois) was adopted for ‘pea’ early in the Anglo-Saxon period; compare Anglo-Saxon peose, pise, English pease (and pea).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Ernst

| This annotated version expands the abbreviations in the original entry Ernst. | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Annotated entries in Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Ernst, masculine, ‘earnestness, seriousness, gravity,’ from Middle High German ërnest, masculine, Old High German ërnust, neuter, feminine, ‘contest, earnest, decision of character’; corresponding to Dutch ernst, Anglo-Saxon eornost, ‘duel, earnest,’ English earnest; the suffix -n-ust as in Dienst; see also Angst. Akin also to Old Icelandic orrosta, ‘battle’; the stem er (erz?, ers?) is not found elsewhere with a similar meaning; the evolution in meaning resembles that of Kampf, Krieg. The cognates in other Aryan languages are uncertain. — The adjective ernst, simply Modern High German, is represented by ërnesthaft in Middle High German and by ërnusthaft and ërnustlîch in Old High German

# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Herbst

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Herbst | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Herbst, m., ‘autumn, harvest,’ from the equiv. MidHG. hęrbest, OHG. hęrbist, m.; comp. MidLG. hervest, Du. herfst, AS. hœrfest, m., and the equiv. E. harvest; a common West Teut. word, archaic in form (whether OIc. haust, n., ‘autumn,’ Swed. and Dan. höst, are identical with Herbst is still very dubious). Hence the statement of Tacitus (Germ. 26) — ‘(Germani) autumni parinde nomen ac bona ignorantur,’ can scarcely be accepted. It is true that Herbst in UpG. is almost entirely restricted to ‘the fruit season,’ espec. ‘the vintage’ (the season itselt is prop. called Spätjahr, Suab. Spätling). This coincides with the fact that Herbst is connected with an obsolete Teut. root harb, from Aryan karp (Lat. carpere, καρπός, ‘fruit’), ‘to gather fruit,’ which perhaps appears also in Lith. kerpù (kìrpti), ‘to shear.’ In Goth. the term is asans (‘season for work, for tillage’; comp. Ernte).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Herberge

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Herberge | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Herberge, f. (with ĕ as in Herzog, allied to Heer), ‘shelter, quarters, inn,’ from MidHG. hęrbërge, f.; lit. ‘a sheltering place for the army’ (rare in MidHG.), most frequently ‘lodging-house for strangers,’ also ‘dwelling’ generally. OHG. hęri-bërga, ‘camp, castra,’ then also ‘hospitium, tabernaculum.’ MidE. hereberge, ‘hospitium,’ E. harbour; Scand. herberge, n., ‘inn, lodging, room, chamber.’ The compound, in its later form, seems to have been adopted from G. by the other Teut. languages, and also by Rom.; Fr. auberge, Ital. albergo; OFr. preserves the older meaning ‘camp.’ Comp. Herr, bergen.
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Herd

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Herd | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Herd, m., ‘hearth, fireplace, crater,’ from MidHG. hërt (-des), m., ‘ground, earth, fireplace, hearth,’ OHG. hërd, m., hërda, f., ‘ground, hearth.’ This double sense is wanting in the other West Teut. languages, Du. heerd, haard, m., ‘hearth,’ OSax. herth, AS. heorþ, E. hearth, The meaning of herþa- (Goth. *haírþs), ‘hearth,’ is West Teut., while ‘ground’ is simply HG.; it is not improbable that two orig. different words have been combined (comp. OIc. hjarl, ‘ground, land’?). Herd, ‘hearth,’ with Goth. haúri, n., ‘charcoal’ (plur. haurja, ‘fire’), OIc. hyrr, m., ‘fire,’ may be connected with a Teut. root hĕr, ‘to burn’ (comp. Lat. crĕ-mare).

​ Henne, f., ‘hen,’ from MidHG. and MidLG. hęnne, OHG. henna, f.; comp. AS. hęnn, E. hen (AS. hana was even in the AS. period supplanted by its equiv. cock); a West Teut. fem. of the common Teut. hano, ‘cock,’ to which are allied the graded forms, OIc. hœna, OSwed. and ModSwed. ho̊na, ‘hen’ (OHG. also hęnin, hęninna, ‘hen’).

​ Herde, f., ‘herd, flock, drove,’ from the equiv.

​ Hermelin, m. and n. (accented like a foreign word), from the equiv. MidHG. hęrmelîn, n., ‘ermine,’ dimin. of MidHG. harme, OHG. harmo, m., ‘ermine’; a G. word merely, wanting in the other OTeut. languages, but in spite of the phonetic correspondence with Lith. szermǔ, ‘ermine’ (Lith. sz for Sans. ç, Aryan k, whence Teut. h), there is no doubt about its being genuinely Teut. From G. are derived the Rom. words similar in sound (ModFr. hermine, Ital. ermellino) rather than from the MidLat. mus armenius (for which the earlier mus ponticus is found).
# An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Linse

| Expand abbreviations An Etymological Dictionary of the German Language/Annotated/Linse | Random word Special:RandomInCategory/Kluge's Etymological Dictionary of the German Language |
​ Linse, f., ‘lentil, lens,’ from the equiv. MidHG. linse, OHG. linsi, f., with the MidHG. and OHG. variant linsîn. It is not certain whether the word comes from Lat. lens, f., because other borrowed terms are based not on the nomin. of the Lat. word (comp. Kreuz, Kelch, yet also Pabst), but on the stem appearing in the oblique cases; hence Lat. lent- (as is shown by AS. lens) ought to have appeared as *linz- in HG. An analogous case of an apparent permutation of nt to ns is furnished by E. flint, equiv. to OHG. flins, MidHG. vlins (see Flinte); these difficulties are not yet solved. Erbse, however, testifies that we are not compelled to assume that Linse was borrowed from Lat. Comp. also OSlov. lęšta (from *lentja), Lith. lènszis, ‘lentil.’
