köken: From Proto-Indo-European *mā-, a baby language word for “mother,” “mommy” (whence also mãte, q.v.). This word, probably at first a term of endearment, has replaced an earlier descendant of Proto-Indo-European *swésōr (still found in Lithuanian sesuõ, genitive form seser̃s). Cognates include Lithuanian móša (“sister-in-law”), Old Prussian moazo ([moaso], “aunt”).
