*** Etymology
From [sv], from [sv].
The 1000 SEK sense probably refers to the salmon color of old 1000 SEK
banknotes. Compare the similarly themed older slang [sv], from [sv]; [sv];
[sv]; and [sv], from [sv]; all referring to the red-pinkish color of old 1000
SEK banknotes. Color and animal-related nicknames for banknotes used to be
quite common. Other examples include [sv], [sv], and [sv].
Another possibility is a Romani origin, then derived from [hi], from [sv], but
such a Romani word has not been attested. Cf. [sv] with the same meaning.
