Proto-West Germanic

Etymology

Uncertain; usually cited as borrowed from Medieval Latin stupha, stufa, stupa (“hypocaust, stove, heated room”), compare Italian stufa (“stove”), Old French estuve (“steam-bath”), from Vulgar Latin *extuphāre, *extufāre, *extupāre, from ex- + Ancient Greek τύφω (túphō, “to smoke”) + -āre.[1][2][3][4] Alternatively, a native formation, from Proto-Germanic *stubō, related to *staumaz (“steam”), *steuban (“to throw up dust”), with the Latin borrowed from West Germanic. Also suggested to be derived from aestuō (“to undulate; to warm”).
