"rideau" meaning in French

See rideau in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ʁi.do/ Audio: Fr-rideau.ogg Forms: rideaux [plural]
Etymology: Inherited from Middle French rideau, from Old French ridel (“a curtain", originally, "a plaited stuff”), perhaps from Old High German ridil (“a headband; ribbon”), from Proto-Germanic *wriþilaz, from *wrīþaną (“to twist; wind; wrap”). Alternatively, Old French ridel may derive from rider (“to wrinkle”), from Old High German rīdan (“to wrap; twist; wind; wrinkle”), from the same Proto-Germanic verb above.
