LatvianEdit
EtymologyEdit
Borrowed from Old East Slavic умъ (umŭ, “mind, intellect”) (cf. Russian ум (um, “mind, intellect, wit”)), cognate with Lithuanian aumuõ (“understanding, notion, intellect”), genitive aumeñs. This word was borrowed into Latvian before the 13th century, while Old East Slavic у was still close to [o] in pronunciation. It conserved its original meaning (“mind,” “understanding”) well into the 19th century; the modern sense was an innovation introduced by A. Kronvalds.[1]
PronunciationEdit
NounEdit
oma f (4th declension)
- mood (mental or emotional state)
- būt labā omā ― to be in a good mood
- būt priecīgā omā ― to be in a cheerful mood
- viņš šodien ir sliktā omā ― he is in a bad mood today
