Latvian

Etymology

From Proto-Baltic *ak- (with an extra -?), from Proto-Indo-European *ok?-, from *h?ok?-, *h?ek?- “eye”, whence also Latvian acs “eye”, (q.v.); in fact, aka is, historically speaking, a variant of acs. The semantic relation goes clearly via the similarity of a hole (from which one obtains water) to an eye. Initially probably used for “ice-hole” (like its Lithuanian cognate), and later “well.” Cognates (in addition to those listed under acs include Lithuanian akà, ãkas (“ice-hole”), Old Church Slavonic ??? (oko, “eye”) (gen. ????? (o?ese)), Russian poetic ???? (óko), Bulgarian ???? (okó), Czech, Polish oko, Ancient Greek ??? (op?, “hole, opening, cave; visiion”).
