Etymology

[edit]

From a (Savonian) dialectal word meaning "line, queue". The modern sense "train" is a literary coinage (by an unknown author) from 1864. The dialectal word is usually considered an irregular, probably sound-symbolic, derivative of juoni. Among the dialectal variants (mostly sporadic) that can be considered are jona, joni, jono and juno. One explanation for the -u- may be influence from juntu.

  1. train (railroad vehicle)
    • 1951, “Lentävä kalakukko”, Reino Helismaa (lyrics), Toivo Kärki (music), performed by Esa Pakarinen, Savonian dialect, with normalization to Standard Finnish in brackets:
      Pyörät ne lauloivat: "Kuopijoon käy tie!"
      Kiskottii kirskuivat: "Tervehykset vie!"
      Unjkin siinä pijan kuorsaasta punnoo—kuorsaasta punnoo,
      Kiekuven kun kiskoo raskasta junnoo Lentävä Kalakukko!
      [Pyörät ne lauloivat: "Kuopioon käy tie!"
      Kiskotkin kirskuivat: "Tervehdykset vie!"
      Unikin siinä pian kuorsausta punoo—kuorsausta punoo,
      Kiekuen kun kiskoo raskasta junaa Lentävä Kalakukko!]
      The wheels sang: "We're heading to Kuopio!"
      And the rails screeched: "Send them my regards!"
      Soon sleep makes one snore too—snore too
      it crows as it tugs a heavy train: the Lentävä Kalakukko [lit. flying kalakukko]!
