North Frisian

Etymology

From Old Frisian tūn, from Proto-Germanic *tūną. For the sense “garden” compare West Frisian tún, Dutch tuin. It was part of the dialects used by second-wave Frisian immigrants, who settled the mainland. The older island dialects use descendants of *gardaz instead. Compare further the doublet tuun (“hedge”), which was borrowed from Low German (in both areas).
