*strumpaz

Runic: ᛊᛏᚱᚢᛗᛈᚨᛉ Pronunciation: /ˈstrum.pɑz/

noun · masculine · a-stem

Meanings

stem, stalk

Etymology

According to Pfeiffer, from a Proto-Indo-European *stremb-, *stremp- (‘stump, short’), from a nasal labial extension of *sterh₁- (‘to be stiff’); compare Proto-Germanic *staraz (‘stiff’), as well as Latvian strumps (‘short’), which appears to be particularly close in formation. However, the laryngeal reconstruction is problematic. Compare also Middle Low German stram and German stramm (‘tight, taught; upright, erect’).
