From '' | From ''{{term|ljūþ}}'' ‘light’ (doublet of ''{{term|ljuguþ}}'', via Middle Valthungian from Old Valthungian ''{{term|ljuhþ}}'', {{term|ljuhaþ}}, from Griutungi ''{{term|liuhaþ}}''; cf. {{mn|got|𐌻𐌹𐌿𐌷𐌰𐌸}}; uncertain relationship to {{mn|gem-pro|*leuhtą}}), and {{term|tungla}} ‘planet, orb, sphere’ (via Middle and Old Valthungian and Griutungi {{term|tungl}}, cf. {{mn|got|𐍄𐌿𐌲𐌲𐌻}}, from {{mn|gem-pro|*tunglą}}). We might expect ''{{term|hwerb|-hwerb}}'' here (‘sphere, orb’ in the geometrical sense) instead of ''{{term|tungla|-tungla}}'' (which usually refers to stellar phenomena – “the heavenly spheres,” if you will), but this refers more to their ability to emit light than to their shape. | ||
