Bulgarian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Uncertain:
- Mladenov: Modified deverbal of ле́я (léja, “to pour”) + -ка (-ka), presumably from an earlier *ляйка.
- Lj. Kurkina: Deverbal of Proto-Slavic *lajati (“to lie in ambush”) + -ка (-ka).
Doublets have been confused (by folk etymology) for a compound of лай (laj, “barking”) + куче (kuče, “dog”).
