Etymology

[edit]

From Proto-Italic *soukos, from Proto-Indo-European *sewg-, *sewk- (juice; to suck), itself possibly borrowed from Proto-Uralic *śuwe (mouth). Cognate with sūgō, Welsh sugno (to suck), sugnedydd (pump), Latvian sùkt (to suck), Proto-Slavic *sъsàti (to suck), and English suck. Apparently unrelated to Proto-Slavic *sokъ of the same meaning.
