Usage notes

Used as gloss of Koine Greek κρίνον (krΓ­non, β€œlily”), but it is widely assumed that the term simply means "flower", as is the case of its Germanic cognates.

Reconstruction notes

Only the accusative plural πŒ±πŒ»π‰πŒΌπŒ°πŒ½πƒ (blōmans) is attested. Streitberg (1910) reconstructs a masculine an-stem, presumably based on the other Germanic languages, but a masculine a-stem is also formally possible.
