köken: From Middle Dutch slap, from Proto-Germanic *slap-, perhaps ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *(s)leh₂b- (“to be weak, limp, languid”), see also Latin labō (“fluctuate, waver”). Cognate with German schlaff and schlapp.
köken: From Old Japanese 弱し (*yo₁wasi), from Proto-Japonic *yowa-. Although not phonetically attested in Old Japanese texts in man'yōgana, the name of a king varies between 目弱王 in the Kojiki and 眉輪王, read as mayo₁wa-WAU in the Nihon Shoki.
köken: Inherited from Old Swedish klen, from Old Norse klénn, from Middle Low German klên, klêne, from Old Saxon klēni, from Proto-Germanic *klainiz (“clear, pure”), from Proto-Indo-European *g(e)lēi- (“gleaming”), from *gel- (“to gleam”). Doublet of klenod and klenät.
köken: Derived from Old Ruthenian кволи (kvoli), with a semantic shift from “according to one’s will or abilities” to “slow” and then to “weak”, comparable to the shift of the meaning of пові́льно (povílʹno). Related to покво́лом (pokvólom), спокво́лу (spokvólu), спокволя́ (spokvoljá). Cognate of Belarusian кво́лы (kvóly), Polish gwoli.
weak, delicate (unable to sustain a great weight, pressure, or strain) · weak, feeble, frail, faint (lacking in force, strength or ability) · weak, slight, meager (lacking in taste, potency or severity)
çekim: karşılaştırma heikompi · üstünlük heikoin
zıt: vahva, tukeva, luja, vankka, kova, terve
köken: Unknown. Related to Ingrian heikko, Kukkuzi heikko and probably Veps heikembāńe (“weaker”) (South Veps), although such a word is barely attested. Compare also dialectal Estonian äigima (“to die down, subside, weaken”), dialectal Võro heik (“vain”).
