navetta

== Finnish == === Etymology === Equivalent to nauta (“(head of) cattle”) +‎ -tta, from earlier *naudetta through an Eastern Finnish dialect (where *-d- is regularly lost). However, the suffix -tta is not really attested in older words (other than potentially aitta), so perhaps navetta < *naudetta is in fact a reduced form or contraction of nauta-aitta (nauta + aitta, through *nautaitta), an idea already proposed by Mikkola (1912). Loaned early on to Western Finnish as well, having been attested in literature in its modern shape already since Agricola. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈnɑʋetːɑ/, [ˈnɑ̝ʋe̞t̪ːɑ̝] Rhymes: -ɑʋetːɑ Syllabification(key): na‧vet‧ta Hyphenation(key): na‧vet‧ta === Noun === navetta cowshed, cowhouse, cowbarn, barn; byre (UK) (building designed and built for keeping domestic animals, especially cows) ==== Declension ==== ==== Derived terms ==== ==== See also ==== production animal shelters kanala lampola läävä ometta pihatto sikala talli other buildings that may be called "barn" in English lato makasiini aitta === References === Erkki Itkonen, Ulla-Maija Kulonen, editors (1992–2000), Suomen sanojen alkuperä [The Origin of Finnish Words]‎[1] (in Finnish) (online version; note: also includes other etymological sources; this source is labeled "SSA 1992–2000"), Helsinki: Institute for the Languages of Finland/Finnish Literature Society, →ISBN Hakulinen, Lauri. 1941–2000.
