igaunis
التعريفات والمعاني
== Latvian ==
=== Etymology ===
Probably derived from the old name of a region in Estonia, corresponding to Latin Ugaunia (where the initial u was probably pronounced as ü). It is also possible that the original word was the name of a tribe living to the East of the Germans, called in Latin Inguaeones. These two Latin terms may also be ultimately related.
