"boudin" meaning in French

See boudin in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /bu.dɛ̃/ Audio: LL-Q150 (fra)-Lepticed7-boudin.wav Forms: boudins [plural]
Etymology: Inherited from Middle French boudin, from Old French boudin, of uncertain origin. Possibly from a root *bod- (“swollen”), possibly from Germanic, from Proto-Indo-European *bed- (“to swell”) (Pok. 96), from *bʰew- (“to swell”) (Pok. 98-102). This would suggest a connection with Proto-Germanic *paddǭ (“toad”). The derivation from Vulgar *botellinus, from botellus (“small sausage”), the diminutive form of botulus (“sausage, black pudding; intestine”) is disputed on phonological grounds; as the outcome of botellus is Old French boel (> modern boyau), this may instead require a Vulgar Latin *bolet(t)inus for boudin.

  "etymology_text": "Inherited from Middle French boudin, from Old French boudin, of uncertain origin. Possibly from a root *bod- (“swollen”), possibly from Germanic, from Proto-Indo-European *bed- (“to swell”) (Pok. 96), from *bʰew- (“to swell”) (Pok. 98-102). This would suggest a connection with Proto-Germanic *paddǭ (“toad”).\nThe derivation from Vulgar *botellinus, from botellus (“small sausage”), the diminutive form of botulus (“sausage, black pudding; intestine”) is disputed on phonological grounds; as the outcome of botellus is Old French boel (> modern boyau), this may instead require a Vulgar Latin *bolet(t)inus for boudin.",
