Etymology 1

Likely from Proto-Finnic [Term?], from Proto-Finno-Permic *počaw, from Proto-Indo-Iranian, from Proto-Indo-European *peḱu- ‎(“cattle”). Koivulehto (2007) suggests that r in place of expected t has developed by generalization from an old Northwestern dialect form *podoi, and the word was later loaned back to the more southern and eastern dialects.
