It is the most frequent term in both senses. The word delms “upper limb; arm between shoulder and hand” is rare and academic, and plauksta, though sometimes translatable as “hand,” refers more specifically to the palm of the hand. ==== Declension ==== ==== Synonyms ==== (of "sleeve"): piedurkne (of "handle"): rokturis ==== Derived terms ==== rokassoma, rokas soma rokraksts === References === == Northern Sotho == === Etymology === From Proto-Bantu *-tʊ́nga. === Verb === roka to stitch to sew == Serbo-Croatian == === Noun === roka f (Cyrillic spelling рока) (Kajkavian) hand, arm Synonym: ruka === Further reading === “roka”, in Rječnik hrvatskoga kajkavskoga književnog jezika [Dictionary of the Croatian Kajkavian literary language] (in Serbo-Croatian), https://kajkavski.hr, 1984–2026 == Slovak == === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /rɔka/, [ˈrɔka] Rhymes: -ɔka Hyphenation: ro‧ka === Noun === roka genitive singular of rok == Slovene == === Etymology === From Proto-Slavic *rǫka, from Proto-Balto-Slavic *ránkāˀ.
