'Koń' is the Polish word for 'horse'. Its roots can be traced to the Proto-Slavic '*kȏńь', which is related to the word for horse in many Slavic languages. The Proto-Slavic term itself likely has connections to the Proto-Indo-European '*ḱónh₂', which also pertains to horses. This PIE root has given rise to similar words in various Indo-European languages, such as 'hinn' in Old Norse and possibly 'hippos' in Ancient Greek.
'Pszczoła' translates to 'bee' in English. The word is derived from the Proto-Slavic '*bьčela', and it's fascinating how many Slavic languages have retained variations of this term for bees. This word, in turn, has connections to the Proto-Indo-European '*bʰei-', a root that signifies the buzzing or humming sound, which is characteristic of bees. It's a lovely example of onomatopoeic origins, where the word imitates the sound associated with the object or action it refers to.
