Étymologie (Anglais)

From Middle High German tūmeln, from Old High German tūmalōn, tūmilōn, frequentative of tūmōn, ultimately from the root of Dunst (“haze”).
Related with Dutch tuimelen, English tumble, but the phonetics of this root are unclear, as is its relation with Romance words such as French tomber, Spanish tumbar and Portuguese tombar.
