"Dung" meaning in German

See Dung in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /dʊŋ/ Audio: De-Dung.ogg
Etymology: From Middle High German tunc, tunge, from Old High German tung, tunga, from Proto-Germanic *dungō, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰengʰ- (“to cover”). The word also meant in High German—and it seems exclusively in Low German (compare Old Saxon dung)—a dwelling or storage room (originally under the earth and covered with dung), from Proto-Germanic *dungz (“cellar”); also compare *dungijǭ (“dung-hill, dung-heap; bower”). The modern consonantism is of regional origin (see düngen). Cognate to English dung.
