Proto-Basque: *sunda
Meaning: 1 odor, stench 2 sniff(ing), smell(ing) 3 burnt (smell and taste)
Bizkaian: sunda 1, (Txorierri) zunda 1, (Arratia, Gernika, Markina) gar-zunda 3
Comments: The probable PEC cognate is *sHwinṭV ‘snuff, smell, snot’, to which we would expect Bsq *sund-. Note that /s/ and /ś/ have merged in most of BZK. Azkue cites the compounds lizun-sunda 'moldy smell' (as in a long-closed room), izerdi-sunda 'odor of sweat', zunda dabil 's/he goes about sniffing'.
