köken: From hobben (“to hobble, move back and forth”) + -elen; compare English hobble. Ultimately of onomatopoeic origin, and thus often linked to other similar, likely ultimately onomatopoeic words such as huppen, hoppen (“to hop”), huppelen and hompelen. Not related to the noun hobbel.

köken: Inherited from Proto-Slavic *brьdnǫti. Compare Albanian bredh, Czech břednout, and Lithuanian bri̇̀sti.
köken: hab (“foam”) + -ozik (verb-forming suffix). Its original meaning was “to undulate” (in the waves); this to and fro movement formed the basis of its current meaning of hesitation (compare wave and waver).
köken: From Old Norse hjól, hvél, from Proto-Germanic *hwehwlą, cognate with Norwegian hjul, Swedish hjul, and English wheel. The Germanic noun originates from Proto-Indo-European *kʷekʷlóm, *kʷékʷlos (“wheel”), which is also the source of Ancient Greek κύκλος (kúklos) (cf. cyclus) and Sanskrit चक्र (cakrá) (cf. chakra).
