Etymology
Zorc (1985) surmised it to possibly be from tl es domingo Sunday, which was possibly mistakenly analyzed as tl luminggo (e.g. Luminggo na, It's Sunday, which could have been taken to mean It's been a week), from which the word is derived by removing the seeming infix tl -um- and early change from /d/ to /l/.
However, according to Wolff (1976), it could also be from tl ms minggu week, which is from tl pt domingo Sunday. Wolff argued that the change in initial nasal to /l/ is also attested for Tagalog language Tagalog tl langka and Malay language Malay ms nangka.
The shift in stress is due to having a closed penultimate syllable on earlier stages of the language. Ultimately from tl la-lat diēs Dominicus Sunday day of the Lord. tl Dominggo.
