Where this word comes from
Originally from the name of the first Finnish primer ever written, Abckiria (circa 1543, literally “ABC book”), coined by Finnish clergyman Mikael Agricola. Using ABC to represent the whole alphabet, such as in the titles of primer books, is a common European convention (also seen in English ABC). Now analyzable as aapis- + kirja (“book”). First as abckiria; the form aapiskirja is first attested in 1690.
