Finnish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]marja (“berry”) + pussi (“bag”). The card game is a four-hand variant of a German card game named after French mariage (“marriage”), so called because a "marriage" of king and queen of the same color is an advantageous combination in it. The game was described in Frauenzimmer-Lexicon of 1715, and a currently played variant of it is known in Germany as Sechsundsechzig (“sixty-six”). The Finnish word marjapussi sounds somewhat similar and has become the Finnish name of this game.
