Looming Issue
How are the noun and verb related? Apparently one is from Old English (gelōma ‘tool,’ shortened to lome in Middle English) and the other is from Low German (East Frisian lōmen ‘move slowly,’ Middle High German lüemen ‘be weary’), at least that's what Googling 'define loom' brings back.
