heel (of a shoe, especially a high one) · interest (price paid for obtaining, or price received for providing, money or goods in a credit transaction) · interest rate (percentage of money charged for its use per some period)

köken: korkea (“high”) + -o. * (heel (of a shoe)): Some dialectal forms (like korkko and korkka (“heel”)) may indicate that this sense in particular is of separate origin and akin to korkki (“cork”), but it is perhaps more likely that such forms are themselves simply contaminations of korko and korkki. Note also Estonian kork (“heel (of a shoe)”), often connected with this word, but probably separately…
köken: lãi (“interest”) + suất (“rate”). The word order suggests this is a pseudo-Sino-Vietnamese formation. Perhaps also a non-Sino-Vietnamese reading of Chinese 利率 (SV: lợi luật), by way of replacing the systematic Sino-Vietnamese reading of 利 with the vulgarized one that gave rise to lãi as a common word.
