Petersson connects the word to kedė́ti(“to burst”); according to Fraenkel, the basic meaning of the root underlying the words would have to be something along the lines of "splinter" or "chip".[2] This is semantically untenable.
Despite Buck,[3]Latvianķeda(“spindle”) is likely not related, instead being borrowed from Finno-Ugric (compare Estoniankedr(“id”)).[2]
