Etymology
From, possibly from Pre-Mordvinic *lika~*līka, borrowed from (compare 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬). Despite the similarity between the Mordvinic word and 🇨🇬 with cognates in all other Finnic languages, the etymological dictionaries have not considered the Finnic and Mordvinic words as etymological cognates.

Veršinin considers this term evidently connected with, the latter being the original form, the root is of the same origin as  and ,  in 🇨🇬, , he compares  in 🇨🇬, , 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬 in  (where  might be a secondary development.) In relation to the last ones, he also compares 🇨🇬.

In the 🇨🇬 word Veršinin sees shifting of meaning from "that (one)" → "not (that one)," where the  originally has been a demonstrative component, the same as in the Moksha term.
