onni
Finnish
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.. Cognates include Estonian õnn, Votic õnni, and Northern Sami vuodna. Further etymology is however unknown, and the word may actually be a newer derivative from onsi (“hollow, space, place”) (compare ontelo) by generalization from inflected forms such as onnen. In older Finnish the meaning "one's share in life" is attested, bridging the semantic difference part-way. Alternately, the word may be of Germanic origin.
