Proto-Germanic edit
Alternative forms edit
Etymology edit
Uncertain; hypothetically from Proto-Indo-European *glendos (“shore”), but the only cognate is Proto-Celtic *glendos (“valley”) (along with its descendants). They are alternatively suggested to be of shared substrate origin. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)
