Etymology

[edit]

Probably from French holà (hey! stop!).[1] This is related to greetings in Germanic cognates such as Dutch hola, Old High German holā, emphatic imperative of Old High German holōn (to fetch, used especially in hailing a ferryman)[2][3]

The Diccionario de la lengua española compares the Germanic expressions English hello and German hallo.[4] Also compared is Arabic وَٱللّٰه (wal-lāh, really?, by God!), but support for this is lacking.
