ferler

French

Etymology

Related to Old French ferlier, perhaps from Latin ferula, whence férule (fennel). This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term. Alternative hypotheses implied by “perhaps” are missing; explanation of sense development is missing.
