Etymology
If inherited from Middle High German, the form requires a shortening ū > u and additionally either a gemination (*dumme) or, less likely, an early shift to the strong declension (*dum). Another possibility would be that the shortening happened later, when the diphthongisation of ū had already begun (as > > ). Otherwise see the main lemma.
