humble-been.

/ˈhʌmb(ə)lˌbiː/

Forms: Also Middle English humbul-, humbyl-.

Etymology: Known only from the 15th cent.; but possibly an old word, representing an Old English *humbol-béo: compare Old High German humbal, humpal, Middle High German humbel, hummel (masculine), German hummel (feminine), hummelbiene, the large wild-bee, Middle Low German homele, hummelbe, homelbe, Middle Dutch hommel (masculine and feminine), Kilian hommel, bommel, ‘bombilius, fucus, et crabro’, Dutch hommel masculine a drone-bee, Danish humlebi, Swedish humla (from Low German). The b in Old High German and Middle High German makes it somewhat doubtful whether the noun was originally derived from the root of hummen to hum v.¹; but there can be little doubt of the subsequent association of hummel with the diminutive verb hummeln , or of humble-bee with humble v.²

A large wild bee, of the genus Bombus, which makes a loud humming sound; a bumble-bee.
