Hard grammar
[edit]From a diminutive in many Slavic languages (Serbo-Croatian, Russian, Bulgarian, etc.) of female given names containing the element Mil-, -mila ("grace, beloved"), such as Ludmila, Milena, Milica, and of the cognates of Emily. Also from Spanish Mila.
@JiriMatejicek hello, what does the above etymology explanation means? Its confusing to read and understand because for what is the cognates of emily to relate mila? 182.253.54.117 07:22, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- I can just give an example in Czech: one of diminutives of Emilie (Czech equivalent of Emily) is Miluška. JiriMatejicek (talk) 07:48, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
