vīns m
Latvian
Etymology
Borrowed from Middle Low German wīn, or from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Old Norse vín or (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Middle Dutch wijn, wiin (cf. German Wein, Swedish vin, Dutch wijn, English wine), or maybe also from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Old East Slavic вино (vino), (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Russian вино́ (vinó), itself a borrowing from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Latin vīnum, which is a possible borrowing from an old Mediterranean or Black Sea language. In (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Latvian, this loanword is old: it is already mentioned in 16th-century writings and 17th-century dictionaries; there is also an apparently related 16th-century family name Vīndedzis.[1]
