Etymology

[edit]

Probably ris- +‎ -u, from risahtaa, thus onomatopoeic of the snapping sound made by dry twigs. Germanic origin has been proposed (compare Icelandic hrís (brushwood) and Swedish ris (twigs in a heap)), but considered unlikely for phonetic reasons.[1][2]

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): /ˈrisu/, [ˈris̠u]
  • Rhymes: -isu
  • Hyphenation(key): ri‧su

Noun

[edit]

  1. stick, dry twig

    Aikakauslehdissä on usein "ruusuja ja risuja" -niminen osasto kehuja ja kritiikkiä varten.
    It's quite common for magazines to have a section called Bouquets and Brickbats for compliments and criticisms.
