Proto-Brythonic

Etymology

Borrowed from Latin cumulus. The lack of lenition on the m is problematic; one would have expected *kuβ̃(u)l. GPC suggests that, like French comble, it comes from a Vulgar Latin *cumblus from *cumlus, syncopated from cumulus, and not directly from cumulus itself.

Noun

*kuml m

  1. cloud (visible mass of water droplets)

Descendants

  • Breton: koumoul
  • Cornish: kommol
  • Middle Welsh: cwmwl
