Etymology

From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 290: Parameter 2 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "fiu-fin-pro" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E.. Equivalent to kaheksa (eight) +‎ teist (of second). Shortened from kaheksateistkümmend ("eight of the second decade"), which is still evident in declension. Cognate with Finnish kahdeksantoista.

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /ˈkɑheksɑˌtei̯st/, [ˈkɑɦeksɑˌtei̯st]
  • Hyphenation: ka‧hek‧sa‧teist
  • Rhymes: -eist
