Etymologie

[ 'd&m ] (adjective.) before 12th century. From Old English dumb (“silent, mute, unable to speak”) *dumbaz (compare Old Norse dumbr). In ordinary spoken English, a phrase like "He is dumb" is interpreted as "He is stupid" rather than "He lacks the power of speech". The latter example, however, is the original sense of the word. The senses of stupid, unintellectual, and pointless developed under the influence of the German word dumm.
