Proto-Slavic

Etymology

Perhaps a relic t-participle of Proto-Balto-Slavic *ljáutei, maybe conveying “to thrill, to surge” (per Mladenov). According to Endzelīns, akin to Latvian ļaũns (evil, wicked), ļoti (highly, excessively) (adverb), while Toporov considers potential relation to Lithuanian liáutis (to cease, to stop oneself). Compare also Proto-Germanic *leuþą (song, appraisal).
