Proto-Finnic

Etymology

Usually considered a borrowing from Proto-Germanic *stubō (“room, living room, heated room”) (compare Proto-West Germanic *stobu), but it is not certain whether the word existed in Proto-Germanic proper. A borrowing from Proto-West Germanic is not possible for Proto-Finnic for geographical reasons, so a Proto-Norse intermediary may have existed, but this is difficult to verify; alternatively, the Proto-Finnic borrowing might be evidence for the word's existence in Proto-Germanic, supporting the native derivation of that word.
