===Etymology===
From {{inh|ang|gem-pro|*wulfaz}}, from {{etyl|ine-pro|ang}} {{mder|ang|ine-pro|*wĺ̥kʷos}}. Germanic cognates include {{cog|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-'', {{cog|lt|vilkas}}, {{cog|cu|влькъ}} ({{cog|ru|волк}}). {{cog|grc|λύκος}} and {{cog|la|lupus}} also probably from the same root, either internally borrowed or with metathesis because of a wolf taboo.
