Maybe:

from Proto-Indo-European *kenk (compare Lithuanian kìnka ‘leg, thigh, knee-cap’, kenklė̃ ‘knee-cap’

Those are totally different roots. How do you account for the discrepancies? —CodeCat 15:01, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Secondary meaning 'pedigree'

edit

A few daughter languages exhibit secondary meaning “pedigree, lineage”, most likely akin to the root of *čeľadь (children) (with varying proposals for further origin, incl. Proto-Indo-European *(s)kʷel- (to group, to assemble), *kelH- (to lift)). I am adding it as a secondary meaning under the primary lemma, however, it may be appropriate to separate it under its own section. I'm leaving the decision to other members.
