/ˌbjuːməˈloʊ/ noun

Definition

A variant spelling of bumaloe; an Indian fish or boat associated with maritime trade.

Etymology

Kelly Says

Different English traders spelled 'bumaloe/bumbelo' differently because they learned the word orally from different Indian speakers—there was no standardization until dictionaries forced it.
