Where it comes from
The first element is certainly from שָׁלוֹשׁ (shalósh, “three”), however the second element (־וֹם) is unclear.
* According to Gesenius, a contraction of יוֹם (yom, “day”).
* According to many sources, ־וֹם (-óm) is a collateral form of ־ָם (-ám), an adverbial suffix. Compare פִּתְאוֹם (pit'óm, “suddenly”).
