Etymology

From the medieval form lagea, previously documented in local Medieval Latin as lagena; from Lua error in Module:parameters at line 95: Parameter 2 should be a valid language, etymology language or family code; the value "qfa-sub-ibe" is not valid. See WT:LOL, WT:LOL/E and WT:LOF.; probably from Proto-Celtic *laginā (blade). Confer Welsh llain (blade, sword, spear) and Old Irish láige (mattock, spade; broad spearhead).[1][2]
