Mittlere Wegbeschreibung und essen Finnen und Esten zu unterschiedlichen Zeiten zu Mittag?

Lounas the direction has nothing to do with lunch despite being a homophone. Bit of googling and apparently both estonian and finnish share the same word root, which meant south/midday, which is why the midday meal is named that. In estonian that stayed as south, but in finnish it was relegated to southwest.

Edit: apparently etelä is called that because ancient finns built their homes with the door facing south, therefore the „front place“ or „edessä / ete lä“ came to be south. Amusingly the estonians changed „edel“ to mean southwest instead, so there was a funny switcharoo at some point.
