[ˈstɪ.mʊ.ɫʊs]

Etimología (Inglés)

Possibly from a Proto-Indo-European *(s)tey- (“sharp object”) that might also be found in stilus, stīva. This could be an unextended variant of the same root found in *(s)teyg- (“to pierce, prick, be sharp”), the source of Ancient Greek στίζω (stízō, “I mark”), although De Vaan is skeptical of the connection.
