Etymology
From liška(“fox”) + podšitý(“lined”). In the past animal fur used to be sometimes sown inside coats. At the same time there was a prejudice that some animal characteristics can be transferred to people by touching them. People wearing coats with lined fox fur were expected to have acquired characteristics like cunningness or slyness.[1] Compare Polishtchórzem podszyty.
