Zu althochdeutsch <i>tegal</i> und <i>tegil</i>
Roland Schuhmann
Abstrak
Abstract The Old High German words tegal m. ‘tableware (of clay)’ and tegil m. ‘(melting) pot’ are generally seen as Romance loanwords. In the following it is shown that there is no need for this assumption because on the one hand Old High German tegal has a correspondence in Norn digel (in digel[s]mur ‘hard clayish ground’) and on the other hand the inherited words Icelandic deigla f. ‘(melting) pot’ and dialectal Norwegian deigla ‘id.’ show that a semantic development from ‘tableware (of clay)’ to ‘melting pot’ is possible.
