- From Proto-Indo-European *gel- (“form into a ball; ball”). Cognate with Latin glaeba, glomus and Proto-Germanic *klumpô (“mass, lump, clump; clasp”).

Scottish Gaelic
Etymology
From Proto-Celtic *gasliyā, from *gas, of uncertain ultimate origin, but compare French gouine (“lesbian”), and Proto-Brythonic *gwėɣin (“sheath”).[1] Borrowed as Welsh gast (“a bitch”). Pott has adduced Spanish galgo (“greyhound”), which, however, is founded on canis Gallicus. See gasradh for root.
