From Proto-Finnic *taikina, borrowed from Proto-Germanic [Term?], from *daigaz (“dough”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): /ˈtɑi̯kinɑ/, [ˈt̪ɑ̝i̯k̟inɑ̝]
• Rhymes: -ɑikinɑ
• Syllabification^(key): tai‧ki‧na

Noun

taikina

1. dough, pastry (mix of flour and other ingredients)
2. batter (beaten mixture of flour and liquid)

Usage notes

"dough" and "batter" are not distinct concepts in Finnish. If a distinction is required, one may use a phrase like "runny/watery dough" (löysä taikina) to refer to batter, while dough and not batter could be expressed as "thick dough" (paksu taikina).
