olut

See also: oluț and õlut

Finnish

Etymology

From Proto-Finnic *olut, borrowed from Proto-Norse [script needed] (*oluþ-) (compare Swedish öl), or alternatively and less likely either from Proto-Baltic [Term?] (compare Latvian alus (“beer, ale”)) or from earlier Proto-Germanic *alu (stem *aluþ-). Possibly akin to kalja, if it is an early borrowing from an Indo-European language.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈolut/, [ˈo̞lut̪]
• Rhymes: -olut
• Syllabification^(key): o‧lut
• Hyphenation^(key): olut
