Etymology 1

edit

Inherited from Old Ruthenian пе́кло (péklo, hell), from Old East Slavic пькълъ (pĭkŭlŭ, pitch, tar, resin), from Proto-Slavic *pьkъlo (pitch, tar, resin). The meaning "hell" is a semantic loan from Old Polish piekło, [1] which arose under the Christian influence (sinners are submerged in boiling tar in hell). [2]
