Etymology
Uncertain. Possibly conflated from multiple different origins, such as Slavic (Russian полоса (polosa), Russian пласт (plast)) and Germanic (Swedish spalt); the most likely direct Slavic cognate is dialectal Russian полсть (polstʹ). Related to Ingrian palsta, Karelian palsta and Votic palstõ.
