Reconstruction:Proto-Finnic/arpa

Etymology
Borrowed from (whence 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬). The original sense in Proto-Finnic may have been "(one's) part, share". Alternatively, the meaning adjoins the concept in the Germanic inheritance system in which property was allotted by drawing lots, cf. 🇨🇬 in this sense. Cognate with 🇨🇬.
