brzëczka

See also: brzeczka, brzęczka, Brzęczka, brzeczką, brzęczką, and Brzęczką

Kashubian

Etymology

Uncertain. Boryś refutes a connection to Proto-Slavic *brečьka, given that Kashubian ë can only result from *i, *y, or *u, instead suggesting brëcza +‎ -ka, where the r changed to rz via assimilation to cz.

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈbr̝ɜt͡ʃ.ka/
• Rhymes: -ɜt͡ʃka
• Syllabification: brzëcz‧ka

Noun

brzëczka f
