tün

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

North Frisian

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

From Old Frisian tūn, from Proto-Germanic *tūną. For the sense “garden” compare West Frisian tún, Dutch tuin. It was part of the dialects used by second-wave Frisian immigrants, who settled the mainland. The older island dialects use descendants of *gardaz instead. Compare further the doublet tuun (hedge), which was borrowed from Low German (in both areas).

Noun

[edit]

tün m (plural tööninge)

  1. (Mooring) garden, yard
