Etymology
1. Uncertain; proposed derivations include:
2. * From Proto-Indo-European *pal- (“to feel, touch, shake”), a root common to Latin papiliō (“butterfly”) and palpō (“to touch softly”).
3. * From Proto-Indo-European *kʷekʷlóm, *kʷékʷlos, *kʷékʷléh₂. Cognates include English wheel, Ancient Greek κύκλος (kúklos, “wheel”) and Tocharian B kokale (“cart, wagon”). For the semantic shift compare Spanish rodilla (“knee”) from rueda (“wheel”). See: Latin Nouns '
papiliō', English Nouns '
wheel', Ancient Greek Nouns '
