Reconstruction:Proto-Finnic/hap'oin

This Proto-Finnic entry contains reconstructed terms and roots. As such, the term(s) in this entry are not directly attested, but are hypothesized to have existed based on comparative evidence.

Proto-Finnic

Etymology

From earlier *šappojmi, from Proto-Finno-Permic *šappa(-ma), possibly borrowed from a substrate language.

Adjective

*hap'oin[1]

  1. sour, acidic

Inflection

Uncertain; the vowel stem may have been *happama-, which would have resulted in levelling; to the nominative **hap'an in Northern Finnic, and to oblique forms elsewhere. This alteration would have been preserved in Old Literary Finnish, where hapoin ~ happaman (nominative ~ genitive) is attested.

This adjective needs an inflection-table template.
