School, sb. 152 B.

Schulle, sb. == some fish, resembling a sole in flavour, according to Sir T. Browne. See N. and Q., 2nd ser. vi. 382; vii. p. 79, 135. It may be derived from the Swed. skolla, a plaice, ON. skolli, a fox. Cf. Gr. ἀλωπεκίας, and Lat. vulpes marina, and Sylvester’s Sea-Fox, p. 97. In Wright’s Vocabb., p. 254, among the Nomina Piscium Marinorum we find the entries ‘Hec solia, a sole,’ and ‘Hec testa, a schylle;’ showing clearly that the ‘schylle’ was not the same as the sole, and that it was some sort of flatfish, probably the plaice
