"numella" meaning in Latin

See numella in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [nʊˈmɛl.la] [Classical-Latin], [nuˈmɛl.la] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: By Lidén, this is from a Proto-Italic *nopnā, being related to napura (“straw-rope”), Proto-Slavic *snopъ (“sheaf”), Old High German snuaba (“band, lace”), being related over the meaning of a “binding, ligature”. Similar phonetic development is found with columella from columna, and scabellum from the predecessor of scamnum, and somnus from *swépnos. The root is uncertain.
