Etymology

From (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Middle French, from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Old French -omes, -umes (first-person plural present indicative ending), of obscure and disputed origin. Possibly derived from the (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Lua error in Module:parameters at line 95: Parameter 1 should be a valid language code; the value "frk" is not valid. See WT:LOL. termination *-ōmēs, *-umēs (first-person plural present indicative ending)[1], from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Proto-Germanic *-ōmaz, *-amaz, related to Old High German -ōmēs, -umēs, Old Norse -um, Gothic -𐌿𐌼 (-um), -𐌰𐌼 (-am).
