[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Middle High German povel, bovel (“folk, people”, ca. 1200). Generally derived from Old French pueble, pueple. However, since Middle High German consistently shows -v-, borrowing from Italian Gallo-Romance povolo should also be considered. In any case from Latin populus. The form with -b- shows a later, chiefly East Central German development and was spread by Luther’s Bible. The umlaut is attested since the 15th century (perhaps after Middle French peuple).
