Proto-Finnic
Etymology
Probably from Lua error in Module:parameters at line 360: Parameter 1 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "fiu-fin-pro" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E.. Cognate with Proto-Samic *tëvē. Has also sometimes been considered a borrowing from Proto-Germanic *deupaz (“deep”), but inheritance is more likely.
