KALE GHaLeH Ayin-Lamed-Hey| Ghah-LEH __ __עלה___ _[GH-L-H àCL] ROOTS: The IE "root" of (Scottish) KALE, CAULIFLOWER and (Germanic) COLESLAW is kaul (stalk, stem). Latin caulis means cabbage. Cabbage, cauliflower and kale are known for their large, edible leaves -- not for any negligeable stalk or stem. An etymon meaning 'leaf" is needed. עלה GHaLeH is leaves, foliage in Genesis 3:7. Ayin-Lamed-Hey is for growing up or going up -- see "ALLEY" for a word from the soft, vowel-like Ayin of עלה [A]LeH . BRANCHES: In pre-Edenics days it was thought that the soft or hard ע Ayin was about regional Jewish accents, rather than designed, global variants which allowed for those different pronunciations. Jews who lived in Arabic-speaking lands did not forget how to pronounce the ע Ayin as GH. Other alleged cognates not mentioned above are CAULICLE, CAULINE, CAULESCANT, COLCANON, COLE and KOHLRABI.
