Etymology
Unknown. Cognate to Ukrainian ре́лі (réli, “swing”). Lithuanian rėklės f pl (“trapdoor; rod scaffolding for drying; Söller, مِحراب”), rėklai m pl (“garret, Lucht”), Old Prussian riklis (glossed as Middle Low German suller), may point to a Baltic term, otherwise connected with Dutch rek and ra. A Germanic cognate of German Riegel or English reel may also have been borrowed through some kind of specialist exchange.
