 Yes, there's nothing like a good whiff of sulfur to cure your head cold and open up your sinuses.  

You shouldn't have any trouble recognizing the smell of sulfur, because it smells like rotten eggs.  

From either the Latin sulfur or sulphur, or from the Anglo-Norman French sulfre.

Again an element with two spellings. Whenever I think of sulfur I also think of sulfuric acid  and the rhyme used in high school to remember its formula:

Silly Billy had a drink

But he will drink no more, 

For what he thought was H2O

Was H2SO4.
