Этимология (Английский)

Унаследовано от среднеанглийский: clinken

Унаследовано от староанглийский: *clincan

Родственно средненидерландский: klinken

Родственно немецкий: klingen

In summary

From Middle English clinken, from Old English *clincan (compare clynnan, clynian (“to sound; resound”)), from Proto-Germanic *klinganą (“to sound”).
Cognates include Middle Dutch klinken and German klingen. Related to cling (sound) and clang. May be further related to call.
Perhaps of onomatopoeic origin, as metal against metal.
