Alternative etymologies VII The article presents new or more precise etymologies for the words kail : kailu â white-headed cowâ , pendima : pendida â to rot, decayâ , raidama : rajata ~ raidadaâ to ruin, wasteâ , ruttama : rutata â to hurry, hastenâ ja (muna)tael : -taela â egg yolkâ . kail : kailu â white-headed cowâ is a dialect word recorded in the Western Saaremaa parish which has a clear cognate in dialectal Finnish, where the noun kaila and its many derivatives denote primarily a skewbald or similarly colored domestic animal (cow, bull, horse). According to the data of the Finnish Dialect Dictionary, this word family is found in the southwestern (Varsinais-Suomi) and Häme dialects (western and southwestern Satakunta, northern and southwestern Häme). On the basis of the Finnish stem variants kail-o â skewbald cow, bull or horseâ , kail-o-kas id., it can be claimed that the stem vowel -u in Estonian kail : kailu indicates the Finnic nominal affix -o. Etymological dictionaries of Finnic languages do not address this word family. It is an eventual Baltic loan with the presumed loan base *gaila- â whiteâ , compare to Low Prussian gaylis â whiteâ
