Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Probably from Proto-Germanic *fattilaz (“fettle”) via i-umlaut on the root vowel. Less likely, continuing Proto-Indo-European *pet- (“to replicate, to span”) + *-ьlъ. Most descendants reflect the extension *petьľa, equivalent to *petьlъ + *-ja.
Polish and Slovene forms have been reanalyzed as *pętъľa[1] (or *pǫtъľa) as if from *pęto (“fetter”) + *-ъlъ + *-ja.
Noun
*petь̀lъ m
- loop, knot
