Finnish
Etymology
From Swedish pelargon. The dialectal variants like pela(r)kuu(ni) show a more direct borrowing, while the standard form pelargoni has been brought closer to the Latinate Pelargonium.

- Rhymes: -oni

Noun

Usage notes
Pelargoniums are often commonly known in English as geraniums, because the two genera were earlier regarded as being one, called Geranium.
