There are at least two plausible hypotheses about origin of the word tachanka. The etymological dictionary of Vasmer suggests that the word derives from Ukrainian netychanka ("нетичанка"), Polish najtyczanka, a type of a carriage named after the town of Neutitschein, now Nový Jičín in the Czech Republic.[7] According to another opinion, it is a Ukrainian diminutive, or endearing form of the word tachka (Ukrainian: та́чка, meaning 'wheelbarrow'). Still another opinion is that it is a contracted word 'tavrichanka' for rugged carriages known in Southern Ukraine and Crimea, derived from the name "Taurida" for this area.[citation needed] However the latter derivation is dubious because the 'tavrichanka', a large, rugged agricultural carriage, is of completely different design.
