Sample Sentences

Etymology

1. Older blomster, from Old Norse blómstr m, in which -r belongs to the root, cf. also Swedish blomster. Possibly from Proto-Germanic *blōstmô, cognate with English blossom, Dutch bloesem. Related to the older "flower" word in Danish, blomme.
2. In Danish -r was taken for a plural ending and omitted in the singular, but it is still retained in compounds (which a plural r never is) and in the derived verb blomstre. See: Old Norse Nouns 'blómstr', Swedish Nouns 'blomster', English Nouns 'blossom', Dutch Nouns 'bloesem'.
