Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): /ˈporo/, [ˈpo̞ro̞]
  • Rhymes: -oro
  • Hyphenation(key): po‧ro

Etymology 1

[edit]

In some way from Proto-Finno-Permic *počaw, probably borrowed from Proto-Indo-Iranian *páću, from Proto-Indo-European *peḱu- (“cattle”). The regular inherited form would have been in **poto < Proto-Finnic **poto. Koivulehto (2007) suggests that r in place of expected t has developed by generalization from an old Northwestern dialect form *podoi, and the word was later loaned back to the more southern and eastern dialects.[1] Kuokkala (2018) instead posits that the Finnic words could be borrowed from Samic, where the -r- would substitute for the affricate in the Sami etymon.[2]

Noun

[edit]

poro

  1. reindeer (domesticated or semi-domesticated mountain reindeer, Rangifer tarandus tarandus)
    Hypernyms: tunturipeura, peura, hirvieläin
    Hyponyms: hirvas, vaadin
    Coordinate term: metsäpeura
Usage notes
[edit]
  • poro normally refers to tamed reindeer, while peura refers to a wild animal.
