liin
Estonian
Etymology
Likely from Middle Low German lîne, from Old Saxon *līna, from Proto-Germanic *līnǭ (“line, rope, flaxen cord, thread”), from *līną (“flax”).
Hypothetised to be derived from Proto-Indo-European *līno- (“flax”), although it's impossible to reconstruct a common PIE protoform due to discrepancies with other European branches and absence of cognates outside of Europe.
If originally a non-IE loanword, locating the source is impossible because cultivation of linen was widespread in the region since the Neolithic.
