Uncle; a term for father's brother, used in some languages and dialects.
From Old English eme and Old Frisian ema, related to German Ohm and Dutch oom, all meaning uncle. This word is Germanic in origin and appears in some English dialects but is largely archaic.
Many languages like Dutch and German still use a version of this word (oom/eme) for uncle, but English speakers switched to Latin-derived 'uncle' instead, so this old Germanic word vanished from standard English.
