Can you give some extra clues or citations for hurri ?
I've added Álgu links for both of the senses.
Thanks alot. Do you have any idea of the age of the word? Would it be out of question that the Finnish word was derived from it?
I don't think they're related. The "newcomer" sense is actually a bit vague, Álgu gives a more precise sense of someone who doesn't know how things are done. I'm not sure how that relates to the Finnish sense at all.
