Where this word comes from
A dialectal word that spread supraregionally during the 20th century. It has not been established in the etymological literature which dialects are at the origin, but they seem to be those of what is now North Rhine-Westphalia. The Rheinisches Wörterbuch (20th century) stated that the word was common throughout Ripuarian and Low Franconian, but had only begun to spread to Moselle Franconian. The more original meaning in the Rhenish dialects is “extravagance, craziness”. A connection with fummeln (“to fumble, to potter”) is supposed.
