PL
The Polish word pantałyk is only used in the expression zbić z pantałyku ‘put sb off his stride, confuse, upset, disconcert’ (lit. ‘strike sb off the pantałyk’). The original meaning and the etymology of the word have been unknown, and this is also valid for Moravian, Slovak and Eastern Slavonic. This author argues that it primarily was a riding term ‘crupper’, composed of a German loanword with a Slavonic suffix.
