Noun

IPA: [ˈbabkɐ] Audio: Uk-бабка.ogg
Etymology: Uncertain. From ба́бка (bábka, “grandmother, old woman”). The dragonfly sense may come from the figurative meaning of "witch, hag" due to bizarre-looking animals being superstitiously perceived as sorcerers at the time. Another theory suggests that it may come from a superstitious belief that the souls of the dead (called ба́ба) would possess insects.

From ба́бка (bábka, “grandmother, old woman”).\nThe dragonfly sense may come from the figurative meaning of \"witch, hag\" due to bizarre-looking animals being superstitiously perceived as sorcerers at the time.\nAnother theory suggests that it may come from a superstitious belief that the souls of the dead (called ба́ба) would possess insects.",
