ETYMOLOGY OF THE WORD HÚMĂ
húmă (húme), s. f. – Argilă întrebuințată la spoitul caselor.
Ngr. χῶμα (Miklosich,
Vokal., III, 6; Roesler 571; Densusianu,
Filologie, 448; Tiktin), poate în parte prin intermediul
bg. huma (DAR; Candrea), deși această ipoteză nu este necesară, și nici cu totul convingătoare (după Conev 42, cuvîntul
rom. ar proveni din
bg. glina, ceea ce nu este posibil).
Cf. mr. umă, pe care Pușcariu 1793 îl derivă direct din
lat. humus, megl. umă care, după Capidan 314, provine din
bg. –
Der. humos, adj. (argilos; lipicios);
humărie, s. f. (teren argilos, loc de unde se scoate humă);
humui, vb. (a spoi cu humă);
humoaie, s. f. (
Mold., humă de spoit);
humu(l)tui, vb. (a transplanta răsaduri).
