"gana" meaning in Lithuanian

See gana in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Adverb

Forms: ganà [canonical]
Etymology: Of unclear origin. According to Derksen, from a Proto-Indo-European *gʷʰen- (“to flourish, swell; enough, numerous”), which he appears to consider the same as *gʷʰen- (“to strike, slay”) (whence giñti (“drive, chase”)), perhaps via semantic shifts "slay" > "booty (from spoils of war)" > "flourish". Cognate with Latvian gana (“enough, rather, fairly”), Old Church Slavonic гонѣти (goněti, “to suffice”); outside of Balto-Slavic, compare tentatively Sanskrit घन (ghaná, “dense, thick”), Sanskrit आहनस् (āhanás, “thriving, full”), Old Armenian յոգն (yogn, “plenty”), Proto-West Germanic *gant (“whole, complete”).
