<P align="justify">The word is found … <P align="justify">The word is found in North Saami as well as in Lule Saami and the eastern Saami languages (Inari, Skolt, Kildin and Ter). It has been connected to the North Saami verb beaskidit to shear , for which corresponding forms are found in nearly all the Saami languages, even those in which the word beaska is unknown (South, Ume and Pite Saami).</p>
<P align="justify"> A beaska is a frock-like outer garment, without an opening even in the front and with the fur side out. One garment took five to seven reindeer hides sewn together. To facilitate sewing, the fur was shortened along the seams (cf. the meaning of the above-mentioned verb beaskidit in Inari Saami: to shear, cut hair, shave; shorten the hair of a reindeer hide along the edge to make it possible to sew ).</p>
<P align="justify"> It has been suggested that there are corresponding words referring to cutting in Mari and the Samoyedic languages. If an Early Proto-Finnic *peèkä/*päèkä correspondence is assumed, the Finnish word pätkä bit, piece, end could also be connected to it.</p>
<P align="justify"> There is no equivalent word or loan source for the Saami word <i>beaska</i> outside the Saami languages. On the basis of distribution within these and external correspondences, the verb would seem to be older than the noun. On the other hand, the verb would appear to be a suitable derivative of the noun. It is also possible that the words are unrelated.</p>
<P align="justify"> The word has been borrowed into Finnish in the form <i>peski</i>, and from Finnish it has passed into Finnish dialects of Swedish (pet ka) and into Dvina dialects of Karelian (pet ki, pet ka).</p> <BR><BR> [[Tiedosto:19beaska.jpg|thumb|600px|Beaska]] <P> [[Tiedosto:JSY_K1_23_I_1_Piera_Tornensis.jpg|thumb|600px|Piera Tornensis]] </p>
