<P align="justify"> The word <i&g … <P align="justify"> The word <i>luohti</i> a chant (dedicated to someone or something) is found only in North Saami; In Lule Saami and dialects further west the word used in the same meaning is <i>vuolle</i> (which belongs to the same word family as the North Saami <i>vuolludit</i> to boast, vaunt and is related to the Finnish <i>vala</i> oath ). In Inari Saami and other eastern Saami languages the corresponding word is <i>livðe</i> (a Scandinavian loan word of the same word family as the North Saami livdet to hum, chant ). Knut Leem s dictionary of 1768 also gives <i>luohti</i> the meaning: a song of the superstitious Saamis that was believed to repel wolves . And in Ter Saami a similar word is recorded as meaning a victim; the pagan religion of the Saamis. The Ter Saami word would correspond to a North Saami form <i>*luohtti</i>.</p><P align="justify"> Both the North Saami and the Ter Saami words have been compared on the one hand to the Finnish word <i>luote</i> incantation and on the other to the Old Norwegian words blot a pagan victim or sacrifice; an idol and <i>blóta</i> to sacrifice . The general view is that both the Saami and the Finnish words are borrowings from this Scandinavian word family; it is also quite possible that several words of different origins later influenced one another.</p>ns later influenced one another.</p> +
