_DOUL_ (_i. e._ DÖEL,—DAUL), a penny. The fourth part of a BLECHLEIN, or kreuzer. _DRITLING_, a shoe. From the _Old German_, TRITLING, a footstool, a bench,—a diminutive of TRITT, _gradus_, _passus incessus_, _cursus pedestris_. TRETTEN is _omnes pedum motus_, from the _Celtic_, TRUD; _Ancient British_, TROED,—so that it seems very probable that TRITLING, or DRITLING, may have meant a little treader, or shoe. _DÜ EIN HAR_, FLEUCH. _EMS_, good. The _German_, EMSIG, is assiduous; DIE EMSIGE BIENE, the busy bee. It seems to come from the _Old German_, EMMAZZIG, for UNMUAZIG, _occupatus et minime otiosus_. After the same fashion is derived the _French_, A-MUSER. _ERFERKEN_ (ERSECKEN?), RETSCHEN. _ERLAT_, the master. The _Welch_, HERLOD, is a stripling, lad; HERLODES, a damsel, girl. It is supposed that the word “harlot,” which originally signified a bold stripling, is from this. Chaucer says:— A sturdie _harlot_—that was her hostes man, He was a gentil _harlot_, and a kind. If ERLAT is from the _German_, it would be from HERRLAUT, a distinguished lord, a master. _ERLATIN_, the mistress. _FELING_, a grocery, or general store; a grocer’s wife. _FETZEN_, or VETZEN, to work, to make. _Latin_, FACERE. The _German_, FETZEN, signifies a piece, or slice. _FLADER_, a bath-room, a barber’s shop. _FLADER-FETZER_, a barber. _FLADER-FETZERIN_, a barber’s wife. _FLICK_, KNAB. _Hilpert_ refers to FLÜGGE, unfledged. _FLOSS_, soup. From the _German_, _FLOSS_, a stream; FLOSSEN, to flow. _FLOSSART_, water. _FLÖSSELT_, drowned. Previous to the time of Luther, beggars were drowned when caught stealing. _Vide_ Gengenbach. _FLÖSSLEN_, to make water. _FLÖSSLING_, a fish. _German_, FLOSSE, a fin. _FLUCKART_, poultry, birds. From the _German_, FLIEGEN, to fly; literally, “fly-hard,” or “fast-flyer.” _FUNKART_, fire. _German_, FUNKE, a spark. _FUNKARTHOLE_, an earthenware stove. _FÜNKELN_, to boil, cook, roast. _GACKENSCHERR_, a chicken. _German_, GACKERN, to cackle; SCHARREN, to scratch. _GALCH_, a parson, priest. The _Old German_, GALL, is _castratus_; the same with GELDE,—whence GOL, GEL, sterile. The _German_, KELCH, is a chalice, the communion cup. GALCH may be, however, simply an extension of GALLE. _GALCHENBOSS_, a parsonage. _GALLE_, a parson. _Hebrew_, KÁHAL, a priest. _GALLEN_, a town. _GANHART_, the devil. _GATZAM_, a child. _Hebrew_, GATAM, said to be derived from an _Arabic_ word, signifying any one puny or thin. Or from the _German_, KÄTZCHEN, a little cat, a kitten. _GEBICKEN_, to catch. _GENFEN_, or JENFEN, to steal. _GFAR_, a village. _Hebrew_, CHÁFÁR, a village, hamlet. _GIEL_, the mouth. _GITZLIN_, a morsel of bread. _GLATHART_, a table. _German_, GLATT, smooth. _GLENZ_, a field.
