English
Etymology
From Russian ла́йка (lájka, “laika”, literally “barker”).
Noun
laika (plural laikas)
- A type of hunting dog from Russia.
1957, The New Yorker, volume 33, page 54:Q—The Russians picked a laika to occupy the space capsule. Do you think a dachshund would have been a wiser choice?
2018, Tim Flannery, Europe: A Natural History, page 287:Indeed, they have been hybridising for a very long time, as is evidenced by the laika, a wolf-like dog that even today accompanies various Siberian peoples.
