pika-
Finnish
Etymology
From Lua error in Module:parameters at line 333: 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 pea, Karelian pika, Livonian pigā, Veps piga, Votic pigaa), probably borrowed from Proto-Germanic *fikaz (compare Danish fige, Swedish fika (“to strive (for)”)).
