Some derive it from Proto-Baltic *sel-, *sal-, from Proto-Indo-European *sel-, a variant of *ser- (“to flow”); in this case, the original meaning would have been “stream, river,” from which “body of water”(cf. Lithuanian sálti (“to flow slowly”), Ancient Greek ἕλος (hélos, “swamp”) (< *selos), Sanskrit सरः (sáraḥ, “lake, pond”), perhaps also Latin insula < *in-sal-, and several river names: Salaca, Salica > Selke in Germany, Salate), then “something inside (a body of water),” “island.” Others derive sala from *ap(i)sala, from a verb meaning “to flow” (cf. Russian о́стров (óstrov, “island”), from Proto-Slavic *o-strovь, so that the original meaning would be “that which is surrounded by flowing (water)”). Still others consider sala to come from Proto-Indo-European *swel- (“to swell”), with as original meaning “(river) silt, deposits, sediments.” Cognates include Lithuanian salà; comparable Baltic-Finnic terms (Livonian sala (“island”), Estonian salu (“swamp island”), Finnish salo (“forest island; forest”)) are considered as borrowings from Baltic. ==== Pronunciation ==== IPA(key): [sala] ==== Noun ==== sala f (4th declension) island (relatively small amount of land surrounded by water in a river, sea, or ocean) okeāna, jūras, ezera sala ― ocean, sea, lake island salu grupas ― groups of islands vulkāniskā sala ― Volcanic island sanesumu sala ― drift island kontinentālā sala ― continental island koraļļu sala ― coral island Madagaskaras sala ― the island of Madagascar island (higher place in a swamp or forest) cilvēki rakuši mantu zemē un ar lopiem un vezumiem mēģinājuši noslēpties silos un purvu salās ― the people hid their property in the land and with (their) cattle and wagons tried to hide in the pine forest and swamp islands ===== Declension ===== ===== Derived terms ===== Britu salas salinieks, saliniece === Etymology 2 === See the etymology of the corresponding lemma form. ==== Noun ==== sala m genitive singular of sals === Etymology 3 === See the etymology of the corresponding lemma form. ==== Verb ==== sala third-person singular/plural past indicative of salt === References === == Lingala == === Etymology === Borrowed from Bangi sala. === Verb === -sala (infinitive kosala) to do == Lithuanian == === Etymology === Cognate with Proto-Germanic *salą and Old Church Slavonic село (selo). === Noun === salà f (plural sãlos) stress pattern 4 isle, island ==== Declension ==== == Livonian == === Etymology 1 === ==== Adjective ==== sala obsolete spelling of salā === Etymology 2 === Borrowed from a Baltic language, compare Lithuanian sala; related to Proto-Finnic *salo, but a parallel borrowing. ==== Noun ==== sala (obsolete) island === References === Andreas Johan Sjögren, Ferdinand Johann Wiedemann (1861), Livisch-deutsches und deutsch-livisches Wörterbuch == Makasar == === Etymology === From Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *salaq. === Pronunciation === IPA(key): /ˈsala/, [ˈsa.la] Hyphenation: sa‧la === Adjective === sala (Lontara spelling ᨔᨒ or 𑻰𑻮) wrong; incorrect; false guilty; liable to pay a fine fake; pseudo; not real; doing something just for show Paramata sala ― A fake gemstone.
