colum

colum (plural colums)

1. Alternative form of coolung

• (Classical Latin) IPA^(key): /ˈkoː.lum/,
• (modern Italianate Ecclesiastical) IPA^(key): /ˈko.lum/,

Perhaps related to quālus/quālum (“wicker basket”). No widely agreeable etymology has been suggested for either word, but compare Sanskrit चालन (cālana, “sieve, strainer”). De Vaan finds a connection with the root of quatio (“I shake, brandish”) conceivable.^[1]
