Etimología (English)

Inherited from inglés medio: clompe

Inherited from inglés antiguo: clymppe

Cognate with alemán: Klumpen

Cognate with danés: klump

Cognate with noruego bokmal: klump

In summary

From Middle English clompe, from Old English clymppe, a variant of clympre (“a lump or mass of metal”), from Proto-Germanic *klumpô (“mass, lump, clump; clasp”), from Proto-Indo-European *glembʰ- (“lump, clamp”).
Alternatively, possibly from Middle Dutch clompe or Middle Low German klumpe (compare German Klumpen). Cognates include Danish klump (probably from Low German as well). Compare Norwegian Bokmål klump.
