English

Etymology
Possibly from the Old English gl�wan, though this is disputed because the corresponding words in Old Saxon and Old High German are dissimilar, gl�jan and gluoen respectively.
It may instead be from an Old Norse word, glóa. Its ultimate root is probably the Old Teutonic root *glo-. See glass
