pudas

See also: Pudas, pūdas, and pudás

Finnish

Etymology

Unknown. The only certain cognate is Karelian puvas.

Theories

• On one hand, the word has been compared with Northern Sami bovccis and related Sami words, but the phonological correspondence is not regular, which speaks against common inheritance. In this case, the Finnish word would probably be borrowed from Sami.
• On the other hand, the word has been compared with Eastern Mansi [script needed] (pasəl), Western Mansi [script needed] (posəl), Northern Mansi [script needed] (posal), Eastern Khanty [script needed] (păsəl) and Northern Khanty [script needed] (pŏsəᴧ), with the hypothetical root reconstructed as *puda-se. In this case, the Finnish and Sami words would not be related.
