Etymology
From Old Danish sial, siæl, Old Norse sál (“soul”), related to Norwegian Bokmål sjel and Swedish själ. The West Norse form is borrowed from Old English sāwol, the East Norse form, with -j-, from Old Saxon sēola, siola, both ultimately from Proto-Germanic *saiwalō. See: Norwegian Bokmål Nouns '
sjel', Swedish Nouns '
själ'.
