නිරුක්තිය[සංස්කරණය]

From earlier iland, from Middle English iland, yland, ylond, from Old English īeġland, from Proto-West Germanic *auwjuland, from Proto-Germanic *awjōlandą (from Proto-Germanic *awjō (“island, waterland, meadow”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂ekʷeh₂) + *landą (“land”), equivalent to ey +‎ land.

Cognate with Scots island, iland, yland (“island”), West Frisian eilân (“island”), Saterland Frisian Ailound (“island”), ඕලන්ද eiland (“island”), Low German Eiland (“island”), ජර්මානු Eiland (“island”), ස්වීඩන් ö (“island”), Öland (“Sweden's second largest island”), ඩෙන්මාර්ක ø (“island”), Norwegian øy (“island”), øyland (“large island”), අයිස්ලන්ත eyland (“island”).

The insertion of ⟨s⟩—a 16th century spelling modification—is due to a change in spelling to the unrelated term isle, which previously lacked s (cf. සැකිල්ල:noncog, yle). The re-addition was mistakingly carried over to include iland as well. Related also to ජර්මානු Aue (“water-meadow”), ලතින් aqua (“water”). More at ea.
