Appearance

[edit]Etymology
[edit]abbed + vigsel, first part from Old Norse ábóti, abbati, a term likely borrowed via Old English abbod, from Medieval Latin abbās (“abbot”), from Ancient Greek ἀββᾶς (abbâs), alternative form of ἀββα (abba, “father; title of respect given to abbots”) from Aramaic אבא (’abbā, “father, teacher, chief”), from Proto-Semitic *ʔabw- (“father”), from Proto-Afroasiatic *ʔab-, ultimately an onomatopoeic nursery word. Last part from Old Norse vígsla.
Pronunciation
