"suka" meaning in Proto-Slavic

See suka in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

Etymology: Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *ḱewk-der.? Proto-Indo-European *sew-? Proto-Indo-European *sewH-der.? Proto-Indo-European *-keh₂der. Proto-Balto-Slavic *-kāˀ Proto-Slavic *-ъkader.? Proto-Slavic *suka Unknown. There are several proposals: * from Proto-Balto-Slavic *śaukāˀ, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱowk-eh₂ (literally “she who howls”), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱewk- (“to cry, shout, howl”). This would suggest potential cognacy with Sanskrit शुक॑ (śúka, “parrot”). * from Proto-Indo-European *sewH- (“to give birth”) with original meaning “female”, possibly with suffix *-ъka, compare Czech fena (“bitch”), from French femme (“woman”). Less likely related to *cu (interjection, used to call out the dogs) > *cucьkъ (“dog”). Borrowing from Old Persian *𐏂𐎣 (*çaka-) (see Persian سگ (sag)) is also unlikely. For the suffix *-(ъ)ka, *-(ь)ka forming female animal names cf. *aščerъka, *kotъka, *lišьka, *jalovъka.

There are several proposals:\n* from Proto-Balto-Slavic *śaukāˀ, from Proto-Indo-European *ḱowk-eh₂ (literally “she who howls”), from Proto-Indo-European *ḱewk- (“to cry, shout, howl”). This would suggest potential cognacy with Sanskrit शुक॑ (śúka, “parrot”).\n* from Proto-Indo-European *sewH- (“to give birth”) with original meaning “female”, possibly with suffix *-ъka, compare Czech fena (“bitch”), from French femme (“woman”).\nLess likely related to *cu (interjection, used to call out the dogs) > *cucьkъ (“dog”). Borrowing from Old Persian *𐏂𐎣 (*çaka-) (see Persian سگ (sag)) is also unlikely.\nFor the suffix *-(ъ)ka, *-(ь)ka forming female animal names cf. *aščerъka, *kotъka, *lišьka, *jalovъka.",
