Translations for merk in the context of fishing nets:
 * Estonian which happens to be a common name for different types of round glass objects, compare fishing float.
 * Latvian (lit. "net goal, aim") before  shifted to the "aim" sense it coincidentally meant, etc.

Not sure how stakes relate to glass floats used to mark where the nets are. The word itself in this sense sounds suspiciously similar to from 🇨🇬 (cf. ). The "boy" sense might have an unrelated etymology. Neitrāls vārds (talk) 12:14, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
