  "etymology_text": "Traditionally considered a borrowing from Proto-Finnic *maa (“land, earth”) (compare Estonian maa, Finnish maa, Veps ma, Livonian mō); the meaning evolved from “earth, land” → “earth, fields close to a village, to (farm) houses” → “(farm) house.” This word was also re-borrowed into Proto-Finnic as *maja (compare Estonian maja (“house”), Finnish maja (“hut”), Livonian mōi (“home”)).\nMore recently, it has been suggested that Proto-Finnic *maa ultimately derives from Indo-European, cf. Sanskrit मही (mahī), Old Irish mag (“plains, field”) (from Proto-Indo-European *meǵ(ʰ)-, *mag(ʰ)-, whence also Ancient Greek μέγας (mégas, “big”)). In this case, Latvian māja might not be a borrowing, but a retention from Proto-Indo-European.",

  "etymology_text": "Traditionally considered a borrowing from Proto-Finnic *maa (“land, earth”) (compare Estonian maa, Finnish maa, Veps ma, Livonian mō); the meaning evolved from “earth, land” → “earth, fields close to a village, to (farm) houses” → “(farm) house.” This word was also re-borrowed into Proto-Finnic as *maja (compare Estonian maja (“house”), Finnish maja (“hut”), Livonian mōi (“home”)).\nMore recently, it has been suggested that Proto-Finnic *maa ultimately derives from Indo-European, cf. Sanskrit मही (mahī), Old Irish mag (“plains, field”) (from Proto-Indo-European *meǵ(ʰ)-, *mag(ʰ)-, whence also Ancient Greek μέγας (mégas, “big”)). In this case, Latvian māja might not be a borrowing, but a retention from Proto-Indo-European.",
