"spogulis" meaning in All languages combined

See spogulis on Wiktionary

Noun [Latvian]

IPA: [spūōɡulis]
Etymology: From Proto-Baltic *speng-, *spang- (> *spuog-, + -ulis), from Proto-Indo-European *speng- (“to shine”). Originally a dialectal word with many variant forms, meaning “shine, gloss, sheen.” Atis Kronvalds introduced it in the literary language in the 1860s, first to mean “shiny surface (of water)” (ūdens-spogulis), from which it spread to its other current meanings (compare German Wasserspiegel). The word really entered the literary language after A. Pumpurs included it in his epic poem Lāčplēsis (“Bear-slayer”). It has mostly replaced a former German borrowing spieģelis.

  "etymology_text": "From Proto-Baltic *speng-, *spang- (> *spuog-, + -ulis), from Proto-Indo-European *speng- (“to shine”). Originally a dialectal word with many variant forms, meaning “shine, gloss, sheen.” Atis Kronvalds introduced it in the literary language in the 1860s, first to mean “shiny surface (of water)” (ūdens-spogulis), from which it spread to its other current meanings (compare German Wasserspiegel). The word really entered the literary language after A. Pumpurs included it in his epic poem Lāčplēsis (“Bear-slayer”). It has mostly replaced a former German borrowing spieģelis.",
