Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; apparently modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: an element of uncertain origin, mountain n.
Etymology: < an uncertain first element + mountain n., apparently after a post-classical Latin name in montanus wild, as e.g. pulegium montanum (13th cent. in British sources), or montanum serpyllum (14th cent. in a British source); with the first element perhaps compare puliol n. and forms at that entry, or perhaps compare pelleter n.2, or perhaps compare post-classical Latin pulegium pulege n. or serpyllum serpille n.
Obsolete.
Wild thyme, Thymus serpyllum.
