Etymologie (Engels)
First attested in 1348. Etymology unclear. Commonly suggested to be derived from potlepel (pot (“pot”) + lepel (“spoon”)), but this form of the word is not attested, and assimilation from -tl- to -ll- is uncommon. When viewed as pol + lepel, pol may refer to a round, hollow object. The word probably used to refer to a large wooden spoon with a round bowl. In the Netherlands, the meaning of "wooden spoon" was kept, while in Belgium, the meaning of "spoon with a round bowl" was kept.
