Proper noun

Schull

  1. A small town in west County Cork, Ireland.

Alternative forms

  • Skull

Central Franconian

Alternative forms

  • Schol (southernmost Moselle Franconian)

Etymology

    The expected outcome of Old High German scuola would be šūl in southern Moselle Franconian, and šōl in northern Moselle Franconian and Ripuarian. The actual vocalism, namely šōl in the very south, šul elsewhere, implies an Old High German form *scōla through (re-)adaptation to Latin schola. This would also explain Luxembourgish Schoul (see there).

    Pronunciation

    Noun

    Schull f (plural Schulle)

    1. (most dialects) school

    Descendants

    • Hunsrik: Schul
