Proto-Germanic
Etymology
From *klagō (“complaint, lament”) + *-ōną, of uncertain origin, with no solid cognates outside of West Germanic.[1][2]
Compared to the descendants of Proto-Indo-Iranian *garȷ́ʰ- (“to complain”) (from Proto-Indo-European *g(w)eRǵh-[3]) but the schwebeablaut makes this questionable. Bjorvand/Lindeman assume an onomatopoeic origin.[4]
Pronunciation
- IPA(key): /ˈklɑ.ɣɔː.nɑ̃/
