laita
Finnish
Etymology 1
From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 331: 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. (compare Estonian laid, Ingrian laita, Karelian laita, Veps laid, Votic laita). Probably related to Lua error in Module:parameters at line 331: Parameter 1 should be a valid language or etymology language code; the value "fiu-fin-pro" is not valid. See WT:LOL and WT:LOL/E., in which case borrowed from Proto-Germanic *laidō.
