петля

See also: петља

Russian

Etymology

Borrowed from Old Church Slavonic петля (petlja, “a curve, a bend”), from Proto-Slavic *реtьlь or *реtьljа. According to Vasmer, a relation with Proto-Germanic *fatōną (“to hold, to seize”) is possible, which would make it cognate with German fassen, English fetch and Old Norse fata, among others
