köken: Borrowed from German Koffer, from Late Middle High German koffer, from Middle Dutch coffer, from Old French cofre, from Latin cophinus, from Ancient Greek κόφινος (kóphinos, “basket”).
köken: From Proto-Finnic *kirstu (compare Estonian kirst, Votic kirstu), of unknown further origin, but related to Latvian šķirsts (“chest, coffin”) and dialectal Russian ке́рста (kérsta); there is no consensus on the direction of borrowing. The word however cannot be older than Finnic due to the consonant cluster.
köken: Inherited from Proto-Slavic *bъdьňa, borrowed from Proto-Germanic *budin- from Medieval Latin butina (Vulgar Latin *budina) from Ancient Greek πυτίνη (putínē, “flask”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *bʰeHw- (“to swell, puff”). Cognate with Slovak debna, German Bütte. First attested in the 19th century.
köken: First attested in 1786. Back-formation from bőrönde, from bőr (“skin”) + -önde (a suffix created by the language reformers). The -e ending was interpreted as a possessive suffix or a diminutive suffix, so the word was shortened. Created during the Hungarian language reform, which took place in the 18th–19th centuries. For the suffix, compare bölcsőde.
