OP Yeh,yeh, but I can't help associating it with "sleeping like a log".
In the middle ages English and Dutch were so closely related and specially in the language coming from sailing, fishing ,boats and such. Well it's perhaps and sure we're nothing like the lighthearted Italians. Right: Heavy and dull, so be it.
Thanks Anu
btw. I think I remember that the Dutch word "dul " in those days meant mad.
The Breughel painting: "De Dulle Griet" means she is mad; is translated: Mad Meg.
Mad Meg
She's the larger figure in the center: you can enlarge details.
How firm are phonological grounds?
