Fin:rakkaaniEng:my sweetheart Show more arrow right (a darling, sweetheart, love) kulta, lemmitty, rakastettu, armas Show more arrow right Nouns rakkaus Verbs rakastaa Show more arrow right From Proto-Finnic rak'as, cognate with Karelian rakas (“willing, eager, kind, dear”). The traditional etymology Proto-Finno-Ugric rakka (“near; to approach”) and its comparison to Hungarian rokon (“relative”) is now considered improbable due to missing cognates in closer languages. According to recent research it is considered a borrowing from Proto-Germanic frakaz (“greedy, lustful”). Show more arrow right
