Etymology

From pre-Germanic *bʰleh₁-dʰrom (‘instrument for blowing’), from Proto-Indo-European root *bʰleh₁- (‘to blow’) + *-dʰrom, an alternative form of *-trom (forms nouns denoting a tool or instrument.). The Proto-Germanic form reflects a further remodeling as a feminine ōn-stem: *bʰleh₁-dʰreh₂-n.
