köken: From brommen (“to hum, buzz, drone”) + -er. The sense “moped” probably after bromfiets, though both terms were first attested in the same year (1950). The sense “coach taxi” may instead be derived from a taxi company Brom in Utrecht, the identity of which is obscure, however.
köken: Clipping of オートバイシクル (ōtobaishikuru), erroneously listed in some monolingual Japanese dictionaries as wasei eigo, but actually borrowed from English autobicycle, an early English term for motorcycle. See also autobike. First cited to a text from 1918.
