Kaméil
Luxembourgish
Etymology
From early modern German Kamel (final stress), from Middle High German kemel, kemmel (initial stress), borrowed during the Crusades from Byzantine Greek κάμηλος (kámilos) or Arabic جَمَل (jamal, pronounced [ˈd͡ʒɛmɛl], [ˈɡɛmɛl]). The modern German form was altered after Latin camēlus, from Ancient Greek. All forms are eventually of Semitic origin.
