From Proto-Balto-Slavic *wékeras (“evening”), from Proto-Indo-European *wekʷsperos.

Cognates include Lithuanian vãkaras, Old Church Slavonic вечеръ (večerŭ), Russian, Bulgarian ве́чер (véčer), Belarusian ве́чар (vjéčar), Ukrainian ве́чір (véčir), Czech večer, Polish wieczór, Ancient Greek ἕσπερος (hésperos), Latin vesper, Old Armenian գիշեր (gišer).

From Proto-Baltic *anžōl-, *anžōn- (later o-stem *anzuol-as), from Proto-Indo-European *anǵōl-, *anǵōn-. The origin of the latter stem is disputed.
* Some derive it from *gʷel- (“acorn”);
* others compare it to Proto-Slavic *ǫzlъ (“knot”) (cf. Russian узел (uzel)), suggesting that the original meaning of ozols was "knotty, knobby, knobbly";
* others see a connection with an earlier adjective *anžola- (“knobby, tuberous”), from *anža (“knob, tuber”) (earlier "narrow, compressed");
* others yet derive it from Proto-Indo-European *angʷ(h)i- (“snake”), parallel form *anǵ- — assuming that it originally had the meaning of 'pierce, hollow' —, apparently because old oaks often have holes or hollow parts (cf. the parallel case of Russian дуб (dub), Old Church Slavonic дѫбъ (dǫbŭ) "oak", cognate with Latvian dobums "hollow, cavity").
Cognates include Lithuanian ą́žuolas, Old Prussian ansonis ([anzōnis]).

* Cognates include Lithuanian ū́dra, ū́dras (compare Latvian dialectal ūdris), Old Prussian udro, Proto-Slavic *vydra (Russian, Belarusian вы́дра (výdra), Bulgarian ви́дра (vídra), Czech vydra, Polish wydra, Upper Sorbian wudra), Proto-Germanic *otra < *utra (Old High German ottar, Old Norse otr, Old English otor, German Otter, Swedish utter, English otter), Sanskrit उद्र (udrá, “aquatic animal”), Ancient Greek ὕδρος (húdros), ὕδρα (húdra, “water serpent”), Latin lutra < *utrā- < *udrā- (French loutre, Romanian lutră, Italian, Portuguese lontra, Spanish lutria, nutria).

This word is traditionally related to čukstēt (“to whisper; to hiss, to sizzle”) and considered imitative of a snake's hissing noise. It seems more likely, though, that the sound symbolism has influenced (cf. dialectal variants ķūska, cūška), but not created, the word, which could then be derived from earlier *čuk-skā-, from *ķuk-, *tʲuk with a suffix -skā, from Proto-Baltic *tyuk-, from Proto-Indo-European *tewk-, *tūk-, from a stem *tew-, *stew- (“to strike, to crush; to pierce”) (whence also Middle Low German stoken (“to stab, to prickle”), German stochern (“to pick, to poke”), Sanskrit दति (tudáti, “to push, to strike, to jab, to pierce”)). The original meaning of čūska was “one who stabs, pokes, pierces” (cf. dialectal verb čūkāt, čūskāt (“to pick, to poke”), čuslis (“long, pointed skewer; oven poker”)), and it was at first a nickname which replaced the earlier term odze, now restricted to a specific type of snake (“viper”).

From Proto-Balto-Slavic *draugás, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰrewgʰ- (“to be other, to be second”). From the meaning “other, second,” two main meanings evolved: “friend” and “enemy, evil” (cf. the evolution of Latin hostis from “stranger” to “enemy” and hospes from “stranger” to “host”). In the Baltic and Slavic languages, only the “friend” meaning eventually survived. The older meaning of “other, second” for Latvian draugs is still sporadically attested in folk songs (draugs vīrs (“another man”); cf. also dialectal drauga bērns (“stepchild”)).

From Proto-Baltic *yuok-, from Proto-Indo-European *yōk-, the o-grade of *yek- (“to speak”) (whence also Sanskrit याचति (yā́cati, “to ask, to beg”) < (“to say solemnly”)). A minority opinion is that joks is a borrowing from Latin iocus, via a Germanic language. The term is attested in 17th-century dictionaries, where smiekli (“laugh”) is a synonym; these terms became semantically differentiatiated by the mid-19th century, when the meaning of smiekli was broadened. Cognates include Lithuanian juõkas (“laugh, laughter; joke, joking; jesting, fun”), Latin iocus (“joke, jest”).

āda (singular vocative)
ādas (plural vocative)

From Proto-Baltic *ād-, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂edʰ-, a parallel form of *h₂eǵ- (“goat”) (whence Latvian āzis (“billy-goat”), q.v.). The term may originally have been adjectival (cf. Lithuanian ódinis (“skin, of skin”)). A relationship between terms for “goat” and “skin” is not infrequent in Indo-European; cf. Russian коза́ (kozá, “goat”), ко́жа (kóža, “skin”), or Sanskrit अजा (ajā, “she-goat”), अजिनम् (ajínam, “skin”). In Latvian, the term expanded its meaning to cover both human and animal skin (or fur), as well as animal skin as material for making objects, ideas often distinguished in other languages (e.g., German Haut, Fell, and Leder). The original meaning is perhaps preserved in the Finnish borrowing vuota (“(raw) hide, pelt”). Cognates include Lithuanian óda, Sanskrit अत्क (átka, “armor, outfit”) (< *h₂eǵ-ko-), Ancient Greek ἀσκός (askós, “leather wine-skin”), Albanian dhi (“goat”) (< *h₂edʰ-i).

Others derive it from the same stem as Latvian vairīt “to avoid; to dodge,” with loss of the initial v. Others yet consider it an old borrowing from a Germanic language (cf. Old Norse ár, Old English ār, English oar, all from Proto-Germanic *airō), possibly mediated by Livonian āiraz (from Proto-Finnic *airo). Cognates include Lithuanian aĩrė.

From Proto-Baltic *widús, from Proto-Indo-European *widʰu- (“forest, wood”). The semantic change from “forest” to “region, area (between villages)” and to “middle, between” probably comes from a situation in which the areas between villages are mostly occupied by forest (cf. the opposite change, from “middle” to “forest,” in Latvian mežs; these two words, mežs and vidus apparently swapped their meanings). Cognates include Lithuanian vidùs (“interior, middle”), Old Prussian widus (“boot stitch”); in the original sense of “forest,” also Old Irish fid (“wood, firewood, forest”), Old Norse viðr (“forest, bushes; tree, stump, log, mast; (adj.) far, wide, big”), Old High German witu, wito (“firewood, wood”), Old English widu, wudu (“forest, bushes, tree”), English wood.
