From Lua error in Module:utilities at line 142: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'h' (a nil value), Regeling, derived from Middle Low German rēgel, from Old Saxon *rigil, probably from Latin regula, though this sometimes doubted. Cognate with German Riegel, Dutch richel, and possibly English rail. The form Reling was reinforced and standardised under the influence of English railing.
