Etymology
Borrowed from Russian пе́кло (péklo, “hell”), dialectal пекл (pekl) (from Old Church Slavonic пькълъ (pĭkŭlŭ, “tar”), from Latin picula (“tar”)). Its ending may also have been influenced by elle. It is first mentioned in 18th-century dictionaries. In some dialects, it also means “abyss.” See: Latin Nouns '
picula'.
