==Old English==

===Alternative forms===
* {{l|ang|wulf}}

===Etymology===
From {{inh|ang|gem-pro|*wulfaz}}, from {{etyl|ine-pro|ang}} {{m|ine-pro|*wĺ̥kʷos}}. Germanic cognates include {{etyl|ofs|-}} {{m|ofs|wolf}} ({{etyl|fy|-}} {{m|fy|wolf}}), {{etyl|osx|-}} {{m|osx|wulf}} ({{etyl|nds|-}} {{m|nds|wulf}}), {{etyl|odt|-}} {{m|odt|wulf}} ({{etyl|nl|-}} {{m|nl|wolf}}), {{etyl|goh|-}} {{m|goh|wolf}} ({{etyl|de|-}} {{m|de|Wolf}}), {{etyl|non|-}} {{m|non|úlfr}} ({{etyl|sv|-}} {{m|sv|ulv}}), {{etyl|got|-}} {{mcog|ofs|wolf}} ({{cog|fy|wolf}}), {{cog|osx|wulf}} ({{cog|nds|wulf}}), {{cog|odt|wulf}} ({{cog|nl|wolf}}), {{cog|goh|wolf}} ({{cog|de|Wolf}}), {{cog|non|úlfr}} ({{cog|sv|ulv}}), {{cog|got|𐍅𐌿𐌻𐍆𐍃}}. The Indo-European root is also the source of {{etyl|ae|-}} ''vəhrka-'', {{etyl|lt|-}} {{mcog|lt|vilkas}}, {{etyl|cu|-}} {{m|cu|влькъ}} ({{etyl|ru|-}} {{m|ru|волк}}). {{etyl|grc|-}} {{mcog|cu|влькъ}} ({{cog|ru|волк}}). {{cog|grc|λύκος}} and {{etyl|la|-}} {{mcog|la|lupus}} also probably from the same root, either internally borrowed or with metathesis because of a wolf taboo.
