Etymology edit

From goue (golden) +‎ mol (mole).

Noun edit

gouemol (plural gouemolle)

  1. golden mole

Usage notes edit

  • Due to the abscence of "true" (talpid) moles in Africa, in everyday conversation the simplex mol may be used to refer to golden moles, as well as other African animals similar but only distantly related to moles, such as blesmols.
