German[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Old High German sturm (“storm”), from Proto-Germanic *sturmaz, from Proto-Indo-European *(s)twer-, *(s)tur- (“to rotate, swirl, twirl, move around”). Compare Luxembourgish Stuerm, Low German Storm, Dutch storm, English storm, Danish storm, Icelandic stormur.
Pronunciation[edit]
Noun[edit]
Sturm m (genitive Sturms or Sturmes, plural Stürme)
Usage notes[edit]
- Unlike English storm, the German word is not associated with rainfall. A Sturm may, of course, be accompanied by rainfall, but the word as such refers only to strong winds.
