Etymologie (Engels)

Overgenomen van Middelhoogduits: guldīn

In summary

From Middle High German guldīn, gulden (“gold coin”, literally “golden”), from such forms as gulden pfenninc (“golden penny”), but especially from the gulden florīn (“golden florin”), a gold coin from Florence, which became popular in Germanic-speaking Europe since the late Middle Ages. Gulden was the predominant High German word for “golden”, though it was later supplanted by the variant forms gülden and eventually golden. The modern use of the noun in part after Dutch gulden.
