lina
Latin[edit]
Noun[edit]
līna
Livonian[edit]
Alternative forms[edit]
- (Courland) linā
Etymology[edit]
From East Baltic, just as Estonian lina. Compare Lithuanian linas and Latvian lini.
Hypothetised to be derived from Proto-Indo-European *lino-, 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.
Noun[edit]

Northern Ndebele[edit]
Etymology[edit]
