Primskovo, Kranj

Primskovo (pronounced [ˈpɾiːmskɔʋɔ]; German: Primskau[2] or Primskou[3]) is a former settlement in the Municipality of Kranj in the Upper Carniola region of Slovenia.

The houses in Primskovo mingle with those of neighboring Klanec, also a former independent settlement.

[1] The name Primskovo is probably derives from an adjective form of the Slavic common noun *prijьmьskъ 'son-in-law that settles on the bride's farm', shortened from a longer name such as Prijьmьskovo selo/polje (literally, 'son-in-law's village/field').

[3] The remains of a stronghold built for protection against Ottoman attacks are visible in Primskovo.

[1] Primskovo was annexed by the city of Kranj in 1957, ending its existence as a separate settlement.
