TekstiThis property is a special property in this wiki. <P align="justify"> The north Saami <P align="justify"> The north Saami word <i>luhkka</i> means a hooded shawl made of frieze and worn by men. The same kind of garment worn by women is known among the Swedish Saami by the name <i>njálfáhtta</i>, in Lule Saami <i>njálfmmeáhtta</i>. Equivalent forms to <i>luhkka</i> are also found in Inari and Skolt Saami. The word has also been borrowed into Finnish dialects of southern Lapland in the form <i>lukka</i>.</p><P align="justify"> The word is undoubtedly related to one that appears in old (the first appearance dates from 1637) Finnish dictionaries and glossaries: <i>luukko</i> men s hood (this originally central European item of clothing is known to have been used by Finns at least in the eighteenth century), and the general view is that the word was borrowed into Saami from Finnish. The origin of the Finnish word is not known, but it has been compared to the Scandinavian word family which is represented in modern Swedish by <i>lock</i> and modern Norwegian <i>lok</i> cover, lid (the original meaning was perhaps covering ). It has not been ascertained whether some related word in Proto-Germanic had a meaning like scarf or shawl , or whether this sense did not develop until after it was borrowed into Finnish.</p>er it was borrowed into Finnish.</p>  +
