Etymology

Inherited from Middle French huyle, from Old French oile, from Latin oleum, from olea (“olive”), from Ancient Greek ἐλαία (elaía, “olive”). The h was added in Middle French to indicate that the u was a vowel, as in typography u and v were used interchangeably at the time. Compare huit (“eight”). See: Latin Nouns 'oleum', Ancient Greek Nouns 'ἐλαία'.
