Finnish
Etymology
The meaning "wormwood (Artemisia absinthium)" appears to be the original. Further etymology unknown, but perhaps related in some way to Estonian maran (“Potentilla”), Võro maran (“Potentilla, Galium”), Votic marana (“Potentilla?”) (Kattila), all from Russian марена (marena, “madder, Rubia”).

The classification of and data for regional dialects is based on pre-1950s data. Since the 1950s, the dialects have become increasingly mixed, levelled and influenced by Standard Finnish. Besides Standard Finnish, a relatively uniform and originally urban 'colloquial Finnish' is beginning to emerge in their place, especially in the cities.
