"sini" meaning in Proto-Finnic

See sini in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: From Proto-Finno-Permic *sine (compare Erzya сэнь (seń, “blue, gray”), Moksha сенем (śeńem, “blue”)). Sometimes connected with Proto-Uralic *śine (“charcoal”), whence Hungarian szén, Northern Sami čitna, but these words are probably not related. Earlier often compared also with Iranian terms such as Pashto شين (šin, “green, blue”), but this is unlikely to be correct: the possible loan sources Proto-Scythian *āxšīni or Proto-Iranian *axšáyHnah would not be expected to give a (pre-)Finnic word beginning with *s-. A Slavic origin, from Proto-Slavic *siňь (“blue, blue-gray”), has also been proposed, but is likewise unlikely due to phonological and chronological issues; the Slavic *-i- would be expected to be reflected as a long *-ii-, and there are no known Slavic borrowings already into West Uralic.

Sometimes connected with Proto-Uralic *śine (“charcoal”), whence Hungarian szén, Northern Sami čitna, but these words are probably not related.\nEarlier often compared also with Iranian terms such as Pashto شين (šin, “green, blue”), but this is unlikely to be correct: the possible loan sources Proto-Scythian *āxšīni or Proto-Iranian *axšáyHnah would not be expected to give a (pre-)Finnic word beginning with *s-. A Slavic origin, from Proto-Slavic *siňь (“blue, blue-gray”), has also been proposed, but is likewise unlikely due to phonological and chronological issues; the Slavic *-i- would be expected to be reflected as a long *-ii-, and there are no known Slavic borrowings already into West Uralic.",
