wellinkn.

Brit.

/ˈwɛlɪŋk/, U.S.

/ˈwɛlɪŋk/

Forms: 1800s– wallink, 1800s– wellink.

Origin: Probably a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymons: well n.¹, lemke n.

Etymology: Probably the reflex of an apparently unattested compound < well n.¹ + lemke n. (compare forms at that entry, and see also discussion at brooklime n.), with elision of medial -e- and assimilation of consonants in the second element.

Now rare.

Either of two water speedwells (genus Veronica): (a) British regional and Irish English (usually in form wellink) brooklime, V. beccabunga; (b) North American (usually in form wallink) American brooklime, V. americana.
