Etymology edit

From Proto-Finnic *rëëhudak (related to Karelian riehuo and Veps rehuda). Further origin is disputed; theories include relation to riesa, borrowing from Proto-Germanic *rēsōną (compare Middle Dutch rasen), or an original sound-symbolic root.

Pronunciation edit

  • IPA(key): /ˈrie̯huɑˣ/, [ˈrie̞̯ɦuɑ̝(ʔ)]
  • Rhymes: -iehuɑ
  • Syllabification(key): rie‧hu‧a

  1. to rampage
