köken: Borrowed from Latin gemellus, from geminus (“twin, paired”), (compare French jumeau, Italian gemello, Portuguese gêmeo, Romanian geamăn). Compare mellizo, melgo, mielgo, inherited from related roots. Compare English gimbal.
calf, fleshy part of the lower leg · the corresponding part of a sock or stocking

eş: viskuit
köken: From Middle Dutch cute (“spawn; fleshy body part, e.g. buttock, calf, back of the upper arm”). Further origin unknown. Possibly related with kont (“buttocks”) or with Sanskrit गुद (guda, “entrails”); according to Pokorny, all are derived Proto-Indo-European *gēu- (“to arch bend”), see also German Kugel. Cognate with Middle Low German kūte.
köken: From Proto-Finnic *pohkëda + -e, derived from Proto-Uralic *počka (whence Erzya пукшо (pukšo, “rump, thigh”)). The verb shares its root with potka; the root with -hk- goes back to *-šk-, which has split irregularly from *-čk- (which developed into the -tk- in potka). The same split is also seen in puhjeta, putkahtaa.
köken: From Bavarian Wadl, from German Wade (“calf”). Suffixed with -i to resolve the word-final consonant cluster, compare cetli from Bavarian zettl or German Zettel (/ˈt͡sɛtl̩/) etc.
