Etymology edit

Compare also the Welsh and Cornish glas as the colour of the sides of glass seams, itself from the root of *glasą. Andrew H. Gray 08:30, 18 September 2017 (UTC)Andrew talk

- perhaps from the latin 'glacies', meaning 'ice' 124.178.225.104 22:59, 30 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

That form would have changed to "glace" through French. Andrew H. Gray 08:30, 31 January 2018 (UTC)Andrew talk

Chambers 1908 also has "any fused substance like glass, with a vitreous fracture". Equinox 19:46, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
