fiú

See also: fiu, FIU, fíu, fiù, fiû, and fi'u

Hungarian

From the original stem fi akin to Proto-Uralic *pojka (“son, boy”) + -ú (“archaic diminutive suffix”). Cognates include Mansi пыг (pī̮γ, “son, boy”), Udmurt пи (pi, “son, boy”), Komi-Zyrian пи (pi, “son, boy”) and Finnish poika.

fiú (plural fiúk)

In terms of its possessive forms, fia is used in the sense of one’s son, while one’s boyfriend is fiúja. Their other possessive forms consistently differ in the same way: the ’son’ with the irregular forms and the ’boyfriend’ with the regular forms.
