Stephen Adolphe Wurm, Donald C. Laycock,Pacific linguistic studies in honour of Arthur Capell (1970), page 1260: The Suki word forwater, nia, has certainly been borrowed from languages in the Mai Kussa-Pahoturi area (Warubi, Mikud, Agob) where it is widespread. From suki it will have found its way into Zimakani (neia).

The termnia has varied considerably over time and location. After the 1960s and 1970s, the worddu has in Sweden been used almost exclusively as second person personal pronoun, with a slight change in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when, for example, staff in restaurants and shops began to useni towards the customers. Before the 1960s, however, there was a difference in use between Sweden and Finland: in both casesdu was mainly used within family, among close friends, and when speaking to children. In Sweden, people with higher social statuses usually were addressed with surname and/or title, or if those were unknown, by reconstructing the sentence to use the passive voice or by usingherr (Mr.),fru (Mrs.), orfröken (Miss), whereas people with lower statuses were addressed usingni. In Finland, the difference in status was not as commonly taken into account, and insteadni was used as the polite choice of pronoun regardless of social status.
