From Russian тайме́нь (tajménʹ, “Hucho taimen”), from Middle Russian таймень (tajmenʹ), from Old Novgorodian таимень (taimenĭ), from Finnish taimen (“Salmo trutta”).
taimen (plural taimens)
|
From Proto-Finnic *taimën, an extension of Proto-Finnic *taimi (“trout, salmon”). Cognates include Karelian taimen and Estonian taim. Russian тайме́нь (tajménʹ), Latvian taimiņš and dialectal Swedish tajmenlax are borrowed from Finnic. Similar-sounding words include taima (“ceiling joist”) or taimi (“sapling”), but they are not likely related.
