"vedekla" meaning in All languages combined

See vedekla on Wiktionary

Noun [Latvian]

IPA: [vædækla]
Etymology: Derived from vest (“to lead, to take”) + -ekla; the original meaning was thus “one to be led, taken”. The notion “marrying”, or “bride, fiancée, young wife” are often connected to the stem of vest (“to lead, to take”), probably because of the idea of the husband “taking, leading” the wife (away from her father); cf. Lithuanian vèsti (“to marry”), Russian неве́ста (nevésta, “bride, fiancée”) (√ *newo-wed-ta (“the newly taken, the newly married”)), Sanskrit वधू (vadhū́, “bride, young wife”). Note that vedekla is still attested in folk tales with the meaning “bride”. Note also a masculine counterpart in Lithuanian (but not in Latvian): vedẽklis (“young man old enough to marry, eligible, nubile young man”).
