Reconstruction:Proto-Finnic/talvi
(Redirected from Appendix:Proto-Finnic/talvi)
Proto-Finnic[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Finno-Ugric *tälwä (“winter”), akin to e.g. Proto-Samic *tālvē, Hungarian tél. The stem type shift *ä-ä > *a-i is attested in several other words as well (e.g. *sappi (“gall”), *sarni (“ash tree”)), and Zhivlov (2014) proposes that it might be in fact regular.
