schole
Middle Dutch edit
Etymology 1 edit
From Latin schola, from Ancient Greek σχολή (skholḗ).
The regular outcome of Proto-West Germanic *skōlu would be Middle Dutch schoele. While attested, this form is very rare, and – importantly – the spelling oe was also used for oo in Middle Dutch. No modern dialect (outside of Low Saxon areas) appears to continue such a form. Instead, the dialects vary between lengthened ō (e.g. Maastricht Limburgish sjaol) and originally long ô (e.g. other Limburgish sjoel, sjoeal). Similar deviations are also found in Ripuarian Schull and Luxembourgish Schoul.
