LKZ^ doesn't usually quote the original (dialectal, Old Lithuanian
etc.) forms of a word. Only the sources are provided. As I've already
written, the word is recorded in the dialects of Salantai, Kretinga
and Varniai. But what's your point? You doubt the compilers of the
dictionary have properly recognized the word only because you're not
aware of it?
