hevonen

See also: Hevonen

Finnish

Alternative forms

heponen, hevoinen, hepoinen (dialectal, archaic)

Etymology

From Proto-Finnic *hëpoinën, roughly equivalent to hepo +‎ -(i)nen. The weak grade -v- originates from the southwestern dialects, while the expected strong-grade heponen is only found in dialects, mainly in the southeast. Compare cognates in other Finnic languages such as Estonian hobune, Karelian hepoine. See hepo, *hëpo for further etymology.
