allemand

Syllable Decomposition

allemand

from the Late Latin alamannus or alemannus (relating to the Alamans, an ancient Germanic people whose name means 'all men', according to Acinius Quadratus). Aleman first became alemant by the addition of the '-t' ending of the singular indirect case of second-class adjectives in Old French, then alemand. This Latin word is itself derived from the Old High German alaman.
