Drüse

Etymology
From, alongside , , from. The gender and stem form of the Old High German are uncertain. It was probably a masculine, so the later forms in -e continue plural forms. Alternatively (or additionally) it may have been a feminine i-stem, in which case continues the plural and oblique singular;  (whence the doublet ) would be a compromise form. Cognate with 🇨🇬. Compare 🇨🇬.
