Lithuanian

Etymology

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *kadāˀn, compare Latvian kad, Old Prussian kaden. Equivalent to kas + -ada. Despite the external similarity with Sanskrit कदा (kadā́, when), there are a number of formal difficulties. Firstly, the original form (as in Prussian) had a final nasal, and acute accentuation, evidenced in the derivative kadángi (since, because) and dialectal kadù. Secondly, the lack of Winter's Law suggests Proto-Indo-European *dʰ rather than *d. However, a genetic connection with Sanskrit is still conceivable. Probably unrelated to Proto-Slavic *kogъda (when).[1]

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /kɐˈdɐ/

Etymology 1
