[gothic-l] Haliurunnas = Haljoruna ?

[M.]

Hails

In response to Justin's suggestion, I recall here what Koebler says on the
subject (GW p. 257):

"hal-jo'-ru'-n-a* 1?, got., st. F.(o') nhd. Hexe, Zauberweib; ne. witch,
magician (F.); lat. maga mulier; I.: Lues. ? lat. maga mulier; Q.: Jordanes
XXIV (S.89 Zeile 11), (6. Jh.); E.:germ. *haljo', st. F., Ho:lle; *ru'no',
F., Raunen, Beratung, Geheimnis, Rune; vgl. idg. *kel- (4), V., bergen,
verhu:llen, Pk 553; B.: magas mulieres quas patrio sermone haliurunnas is
ipse cognominat Jordanes XXIV S. 89, 11"

in a separate entry, ru'na F(o') has the meaning "secret, secret plan,
secret council, secret consultation, secret counsel, mystery".
