Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Old Spanish: filo

Κληρονομήθηκε από Λατινικά: fīlum

Συγγενές με Αγγλικά: file

In summary

From Old Spanish filo, from Latin fīlum. Doublet of filo. Although both were inherited, it is not fully certain why the two diverged and why filo, preserving the initial -f- from Old Spanish, took on the sense of “edge”, while hilo maintained that of “string, thread” (in line with the original Latin meaning). Cognate with English file.
