<P align="justify">There are words c … <P align="justify">There are words corresponding to the North Saami áhpi in different [[Modern Saami languages|Saami languages]] from South Saami to Skolt. It means both broad swamp and open sea in all except Skolt Saami, where it has only the latter meaning.</p>
<P align="justify"> The word is thought to be a Scandinavian loan word (cf. Old Norwegian haf sea, open sea outside a fjord, Modern Norwegian and Swedish hav sea), although this borrowing has been disputed. The Saami word has also been borrowed by northern Finnish dialects: aapa means both a broad expanse of treeless swampland and a wide reach of open water. The Finnish word aapa has been adopted into international terminology to refer to a northern minerotrophic formation.</p>
<P align="justify"> Some scholars think that the two different meanings of the Saami word are a result of the fact that in the sense of open sea it is a borrowing from Scandinavian languages and in the sense of swamp it is a Finnish loan word.</p>swamp it is a Finnish loan word.</p> +
