takjas
Estonian
Metskimalane villtakja õiel
Etymology
From Proto-Finnic *takijas, ultimately from Proto-Baltic *dagijas (“burdock”) (compare modern Latvian dadzis and Lithuanian dagys). Cognate with Finnish takiainen, Votic and Ingrian takkiain, Ludian takkiaińe, Livvi takkis- (in the compound takkisheinü (“burdock”)) and Veps takkiž.
The word has folk-etymologically merged with the stem in taki-sta/ma (“to prevent”) (compare the dialectal definition “to connect, fasten, tie up”, and its standard language equivalent takerdama (“to tangle”)).
