Meaning & usage
bay, gulf, inlet (portion of a body of water extending into the land)
Where this word comes from
From Proto-Finnic *lakci (compare Karelian laksi, Veps laht, Estonian laht, Votic lahti, Northern Sami luokta), borrowed from Proto-Baltic [Term?] (compare Lithuanian lanktis (“arc”)). -ht- in the nominative is by analogy with the oblique case forms; the expected form laksi (compare the declension of kaksi) has fallen out of usage in the standard language, but survives in Swedish-language toponyms in Finland (as -lax) and some dialects, primarily some Karelian dialects.
