Reconstruction:Proto-Finnic/toivodak
Proto-Finnic
Etymology
Unknown. Related to Proto-Samic *toajvōtēk.
Koivulehto (2003) has proposed that the word is an Indo-Iranian borrowing (and akin to Sanskrit दैव (daiva, “divine”)), but Holopainen & Junttila (2022) considers this etymology speculative due to morphological and semantic difficulties.[1]
