Etymology of PEALS
The word "peals" is derived from the Old French word "peel" or "pele", which originally meant "to break", "to split", or "to crack". This Old French word is related to the Latin word "pila", meaning "pillar" or "buttress". Over time, "peel" evolved in Middle English to refer specifically to the loud ringing sound produced by bells. Consequently, the plural form "peals" came into usage to describe the distinct sounds produced by multiple bells ringing together.
