Corrigenda und Addenda zu den Etymologien von ahd. musina und slav. (?) cumin

Abstract This article clarifies the etymologies of the Old High German glosses musina and cumin . It will be shown that musina can indeed be etymologized as originally Slavic (though some details must be added to an older explanation), while cumin is more likely to be an Old High German loanword from Slavic, because the way the word is spelled cannot be explained, if the word is Slavic.
