"קנאָבל" meaning in Yiddish

See קנאָבל in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈknɔbɫ̩/ Forms: knobl [romanization], knoblen [romanization], knoblke [romanization], knebl [romanization]
Etymology: Shortened from an earlier form קנאָבליך (knoblikh) (which was preserved in Western Yiddish), possibly because the ending was interpreted as the diminutive plural ending ־לעך (-lekh); the same shortening happened in some other Germanic languages (compare e.g. Swabian Knobl vs standard German Knoblauch, which see for more). Ultimately from Middle High German knobelouch. Etymology templates: {{cog|swg|Knobl}} Swabian Knobl, {{cog|de|Knoblauch}} German Knoblauch, {{der|yi|gmh|knobelouch}} Middle High German knobelouch Head templates: {{head|yi|noun|g=m|g2=|g3=|head=|sort=|tr=}} קנאָבל • (knobl) m, {{yi-noun|dim=קנעבל|f=קנאָבלקע|g=m|pl=קנאָבלען}} קנאָבל • (knobl) m, plural קנאָבלען (knoblen), feminine קנאָבלקע (knoblke), diminutive קנעבל (knebl)
