Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/xъlmъ
Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From a Germanic language; compare Proto-Germanic *hulmaz (“small island, hill, mound”). The exact donor language cannot be specified - some form of Germanic that had not undergone the a-umlaut, possibly Langobardic or Gothic.
The Germanic word further reflects Proto-Indo-European *kelH- (“lift”), whence also *čelo (“forehead”).
