Etymologia (Angielski)

Dziedziczone z średnioangielski: quyl

Pokrewny z średnio-wysoko-niemiecki: kil

In summary

From late Middle English quyl, which is first attested in the early 15th century with the meanings "fragment of reed" and "shaft of a feather", probably from Low German and Middle Low German quiele, possibly ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *gʷelH- (“to pierce, stick”).
Compare Middle High German kil (“large feather, quill”), which is derived from the Low German term.
