266 Views Asked by At

Is there an English translation for Finnish words kanta and kylki? Namely, if $ABC$ is an isosceles triangle with $AB=AC$ then $BC$ is kanta in Finnish and $AB$, $BC$ are both kylki.

Now I know four words in Finnish (I also know kani and pieru) The kanta is called the "base" and the kylki (kylit? there are two of them) are called the "legs".
