Proto-Finnic
    
    Etymology
    
Probably borrowed from Proto-Germanic *spindaz with unknown origin, compare Middle High German spint (“fat, lard, sapwood”) and Dutch spint (spinthout (“sapwood”)). Alternatively (but less likely) from Proto-Finno-Permic *pinta, if related to Erzya пондакш (pondakš), пондаз (pondaz), Moksha понда (ponda), Udmurt педло (pedlo).[1]
