Meaning & usage
cathedral (principal church of a bishop's diocese)
Where this word comes from
tuomio (“judgement”) + kirkko (“church”), a mistaken calque of Swedish domkyrka (“cathedral”); the initial component dom- was interpreted as dom (“judgment”), when it actually derives from Latin domus (“home”) (compare German Dom (“cathedral”)). Alternatively, it may represent a phono-semantic matching.
