parka

• parkee
• parki

1780, ultimately from Tundra Nenets парка, via Aleut parka and Russian па́рка (párka).[1][2][3] Perhaps from Proto-Uralic [Term?]; see dialectal Finnish parka (“rag, swaddling clothes”), which may be cognate from Proto-Uralic, or early borrowing from another Uralic language.

Uncertain. The original sense, retained in dialects, is "a rag, swaddling clothes" and it is possible that the word is an old cognate of the international parka meaning "jacket", as a loan from Tundra Nenets or, less likely, even by common inheritance from Proto-Uralic.[1]
