[edit]Etymology tree
Inherited from Middle High German līche, from Old High German līh, from Proto-West Germanic *līk, from Proto-Germanic *līką, from Proto-Indo-European *leyg-.
Noun
[edit]Läich f (plural Läichen)
Etymology 2
[edit]Borrowed from German Laich, from Middle High German leich. Formally adapted to etymology 1 because the German word is homophonous with Leiche (but for the final -e). If it had been inherited, the Luxembourgish form would be *Leech. Compare similarly Säit (“string”).
Noun
[edit]Läich m (uncountable)
