Noun

ла́да • (láda) m inan

genitive singular of лад (lad)

Etymology 2

Related to ладый (ladyj, “dear”), but of disputed origin. Possibly from Proto-Slavic *lada, from Proto-Indo-European *leh₂d- (“to love; beloved, wife”), if cognate with Tocharian B lāre (“beloved”, adjective) (< *leh₂d-ro-) and Lycian 𐊍𐊀𐊅𐊀 (lada, “wife”).[1] Alternatively, simply a substantization of the root of лад (lad, “harmony”) and ладить (laditʹ, “to be on good terms”).

Noun

ла́да • (láda) f anim (genitive ла́ды, nominative plural ла́ды, genitive plural лад, diminutive ла́душка)

(dated) darling, sweetheart
