Where this word comes from
From Proto-Finnic *kundëldak, from Proto-Finno-Ugric *kuntale- (compare Hungarian hall), frequentative of *kunta- (“to hunt, catch”) (compare Erzya verbs кундамс (kundams, “to catch; to grip”) and кунсоломс (kunsoloms, “to listen; to comply, obey”)). The long vowel -uu- is by contamination with kuullella, kuulla.
