Pannonian Rusyn
Etymology
Borrowed from Serbo-Croatian Холандија / Holandija, ultimately from Dutch Holland, from Old Dutch holt lant.
Pronunciation
Proper noun
Голандия (Holandija) f (related adjective голандски)
- Holland (a traditional region of the Netherlands formed by two modern provinces, North Holland and South Holland)
- (Serbia) Netherlands (the main constituent country of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, located primarily in Western Europe bordering Germany and Belgium)
- (Serbia) Netherlands, Kingdom of the Netherlands (a country in Western Europe, consisting of four constituent countries: the Netherlands per se, Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten)
Usage notes
- The term used to refer to the Netherlands in Croatian Pannonian Rusyn is not known. As a calque of Serbo-Croatian Низоземска / Nizozemska, the expected form would be *Нїзкожемска (*Njizkožemska), or *Нїзожемска (*Njizožemska) based further on the Czech etymon, however this is not attested in writing. It is also possible that Croatian Pannonian Rusyn borrows Низоземска (Nizozemska) directly from Serbo-Croatian, however it is not known whether that is the case as existing Croatian Pannonian Rusyn texts do not mention the Netherlands in general.
