Etymology 1
From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 95: 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., from Proto-Uralic *kaďa- (“to leave”). Cognates are found in almost every Uralic language, e.g. Northern Sami guođđit (“to leave something, to depart”), Skolt Sami kue´đđed (“to leave smth”), Moksha кадомс (kadoms, “to leave”), Mari, Udmurt кыльыны (kyľyny, “to stay”), Hungarian hagy (“to let; to leave”), Mansi, Selkup. Labialization of the stem vowel occurred in Proto-Finnic, compare Estonian kadu (“loss”).
Pronunciation
Noun
kato
- failure of crops
- loss, disappearance, lack (used primarily in compound terms)
- yleisökato ― lack or loss of audience
