bundle

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *bʰn̥dʰ-ó-m, a zero-grade nominal formation from root *bʰendʰ- (‘to tie; bind’). Cognate with Latin funda (‘hand sling’), Sanskrit बध्नाति (badhnā́ti) (badhnā́ti, ‘to bind, tether; to hold captive’). The West Proto-Germanic variants in -el/-il come from the suffix *-ilaz (forms agent and instrument nouns): *bʰn̥dʰ-ilaz. Related to *bindaną (‘to bind, tie’).
