stoł
See also: stół and Appendix:Variations of "stol"
Lower Sorbian
Etymology
From Proto-Slavic *stolъ (“table”), from Proto-Balto-Slavic *stalas (“table”). Most Slavic cognates of this word mean ‘table’ rather than ‘chair’, except Old Church Slavonic столъ (stolŭ, “seat, throne”) and Bulgarian стол (stol, “chair”). The fact that the Sorbian word means ‘chair’ rather than ‘table’ is probably due to the influence of German Low German stol and German Stuhl.
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /stɔw/, [stow]
