dúil etymology[edit]

@Angr, do you know of any source that discusses the etymology for dúil (desire) besides MacBain? Thanks! —JohnC5 23:04, 10 November 2017 (UTC)Reply

No, I don't, but it's actually Etymology 2 'creation, element' that's said to come from the PIE word for 'smoke'. —Aɴɢʀ (talk) 08:01, 11 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
