Etymology

From Middle Skundavisk vinter, from Old Skundavisk vintar, from Halmisk ᚹᛁᚾᛏᚨᚱ (wintar), ᚹᛁᚾᛏᚢᚱ (wintur), from Proto-Germanic *wintruz.

Pronunciation

Noun

winter m. (class 1 or 3a, genitive winters, plural wintere or winters)

  1. winter

Usage notes

The plural form winters arose by analogy with other words ending in -er (including summer). It's now the most common form though wintere may still be encountered in formal speech.
