Etymology

[edit]

@Sławobóg any source that it comes from Proto-Slavic? Shumkichi (talk) 23:40, 6 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Shumkichi it is in Vasmer and ESSJa, you want me to add refs? Chełmno also comes from that word but I'm not sure how should we handle that. Allegled Polish chełm is not mentioned in Vasmer/ESSJa so its probably OR. Maybe we could go with Old Polish *chełm since both names are most likely attested since Old Polish? But is there a suffix -no? @Vininn126 Sławobóg (talk) 11:03, 7 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
