From nas (“rodent”) + an element of uncertain interpretation ncuav.
| This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium. Particularly: “"Ncuav" by itself means "cake", "pock mark", and "slap, strike with hand's palm" - none of these seem especially related to squirrels. Or perhaps there's a folk legend about squirrels liking cake or being used as an ingredient in cake?” |
