Further, two possible Proto-Indo-European sources have been proposed: (a) *h₂eḱ-sti-, from *h₂eḱ- “sharp, pointy, edgy; stone” (whence also ass “sharp”, q.v.), with the meaning changes being “sharp, pointy (object)” > “stinger” > “tail”; and (b) *h₃ésth₁- (“bone”), in which case the semantic evolution would have been “bone” > “tail bone” > “tail” (cf. Icelandic rōfa (“dog's, cat's tail”) from Old Norse rófa (“bony part of a horse's tail”)). In the (a) case, cognates would include Lithuanian aksti̇̀s (“skewer, fish bone”) akšti̇̀s (“skewer, fish bone, awn”), Old Church Slavonic осътъ (osŭtŭ, “thorny water plant”), остъ (ostŭ, “awn, stinger, fish bone”), Russian ость (ostʹ), Czech osť, Polish ość, Russian осот (osot, “thorny plant”), Bulgarian о́сът (ósǎt), Czech, Polish oset. In the (b) case, cognates would include Hittite 𒄩𒀸𒋫𒄿, Sanskrit अस्थि (asthi), Ancient Greek ὀστέον (ostéon), Albanian asht, Tocharian B āsta, Latin os (and maybe also costa (“rib”)), and perhaps also all the (a) cognates, which some authors also derive from *h₃ésth₁-. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): [ˈastɛ] === Noun === aste f (5th declension) (anatomy) (long) tail zirga aste ― horse tail suņa aste ― dog tail vilka aste ― wolf tail gaiļa aste ― rooster tail pāva aste ― peacock tail kaķis pa to laiku bija izlavījies no pagalma un, izlējis asti, lēni gāja prom ― the cat, meanwhile, had gotten out of the yard and, straightening (his) tail, slowly went away kas sunim asti cels, ja pats necels ― who is going to raise a dog's tail if not for the dog himself (of objects) tail (extended part at the end) lidmašīnas aste ― airplane tail kleitas aste ― dress tail komētas aste ― comet's tail garas rindas stāvēja pie kasēm... paša astē iestājās arī tēvs ― there were long lines at the cashiers... father joined at the very tail (= end) (of one of the lines) ==== Usage notes ==== Basically, aste refers to long tails like a horse's, while ļipa refers to short tails like a rabbit's. ==== Declension ==== ==== Synonyms ==== ļipa ==== Derived terms ==== astains === References === == Livvi == === Etymology === From Finnish aste. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈɑste/ Hyphenation: as‧te === Noun === aste degree point ==== Declension ==== This entry needs an inflection-table template. === References === Tatjana Boiko (2019), “aste”, in Suuri Karjal-Venʹalaine Sanakniigu (livvin murreh) [The Big Karelian-Russian dictionary (Livvi dialect)], 2nd edition, →ISBN == Mauritian Creole == === Etymology === From French acheter. === Verb === aste to buy === References === Baker, Philip & Hookoomsing, Vinesh Y. 1987.
