Volynka (f)

original: волинка

Duda

Podnos locates it in "Volyn" (Ukrainian: Волинь; English name: Volhynia), an oblast (province) in northwestern Ukraine; A connection between the two names has been suggested, but until now [i.e. 2020; ws] I haven't encountered any affirmation that such could be definitively established; NB: ➺ Russia.
