teimlo

Welsh

Etymology

Appears to be ultimately derived from Proto-Celtic *ta(n)xsman (“touch”, noun) or similar, from Proto-Indo-European *téh₂gsmn̥, from the root *teh₂g- (“to touch”), and so cognate with Latin tango.[1] Compare especially Latin contaminō (“I bring into contact, touch; to contaminate”), derived from an abstract noun *tāmen (“contact, touch”), which would be cognate with the Celtic.

This etymology is incomplete. You can help Wiktionary by elaborating on the origins of this term.
