語源

From a merger of two nouns of similar meaning, which came to be pronounced the same in West Saxon because of a sound change whereby -þl and -þm became -tl and -tm in some words (cf. botl, botm):

• Proto-West Germanic *seþl
• Proto-West Germanic *setl, from Proto-Germanic *setlaz.

発音

• IPA: /setl/

名詞
