𐍃𐌺𐌰𐌼𐌰
Gothic
Etymology 1
From Proto-Germanic *skamō.
Noun
𐍃𐌺𐌰𐌼𐌰 • (skama) f
- shame
Usage notes
- The line that attests this as a noun is incomplete, and the manuscript it is from (the Gothica Bononiensia) is a palimpsest and very difficult to read. Although the Italian translation by scholars Finazzi and Tornaghi translates the attestation as a noun, it is uncertain whether it is that or a verb form.
- Others (Falluomini, Schuhmann) have read the word differently and claim it is not skama but skapa, in which case the former noun would remain unattested.
