ficelle
Syllable Decomposition
ficelleprobably comes from the Latin filicella, derived from the classical Latin filum ('thread', 'line', 'edge of a blade'), which comes from the Proto-Indo-European root gʷhi-. It could also come from the Latin funicella [few t. 3, p. 878b], derived from the classical Latin funicula ('small rope', 'small cord'), but this is opposed by phonetic reasons and the fact that the form aficelés has been found since the 12th century.
