# sukka
## Estonian
### Noun

sukka
* partitive singular of sukk
* illative singular of sukk

## Finnish
### Etymology

From Proto-Finnic *sukka, borrowed from Proto-Norse [Term?], from Proto-Germanic *sukkaz (“sock”) (compare English sock, Swedish socka), from Latin soccus. Finnic cognates include Ingrian sukka, Karelian sukka, Karelian šukka, Livvi sukku, Ludian suk, Estonian sukk, Livonian sukā and Votic sukkõ.

### Pronunciation

* IPA: /ˈsukːɑ/, [ˈs̠ukːɑ̝]
* Rhymes: -ukːɑ
* Hyphenation: suk‧ka

### Noun

sukka
* sock (garment covering foot)
* stocking (garment covering foot and part of leg)
* stocking (knitted hood of cotton thread which is eventually converted into an incandescent mantle for gas lighting)

#### Usage notes

If a distinction between socks and stockings needs to be made in Finnish, one may use lyhyt sukka (literally “short sukka”) for socks, and pitkä sukka (literally “long sukka”) for stockings.
