adjective · ja-stem

Meanings

wet
damp; moist

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *pnktu-, from *pen-k-. Cognate with Sanskrit पङ्क (paṅka) (paṅka, ‘mud, bog’). If *pen-k- is a k-extension of Proto-Indo-European *pen- (‘moist; mud, swamp’) (which is uncertain), then compare also Proto-Germanic *fanją (‘fen, marsh’), as well as Proto-Germanic *fangō (‘wetness, moisture’) (whence Italian fango (‘mud’), likely via Gothic).
