Etymology
Inherited from Latin cauliculus, diminutive of caulis (“cabbage”). The spelling reflects a dialectal plural form with ieisme reanalysed as a singular. In other varieties, the plural was dissimilated to conills or affricated to colitx. See: Latin Nouns '
cauliculus', Latin Nouns '
cauliculus'.
