Etymology
First recorded in 1629. From (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Powhatan ("Virginia Algonquian"), though the exact source word is in question: suggestions include uskatahomen,[1] appuminnéonash ("parched corn"),[2][3] and rokohamin (“parched, ground corn”)[4], the last yielding also the unclipped rockahominy.
Pronunciation
- (deprecated use of
|lang=parameter) IPA(key): /ˈhɒmɨni/ - Lua error in Module:parameters at line 303: Parameter 1 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "god-guard merger and weak vowel merger" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E. (deprecated use of
|lang=parameter) Homophone: harmony
