pūoga

Livonian

Etymology

From Proto-Finnic *poika, from Proto-Finno-Ugric *pojka. Cognate to e.g. Finnish poika, Estonian poeg and Hungarian fiú. The nominative stem is irregular (ˣpȱiga would be expected), but may reflect analogy to the inflection type lēba : partitive leibõ. However, there are no defined irregular nouns in Livonian, since this noun like others were listed under declension numerical indexes that also contain notable irregularly-declined personal pronouns.
