Etimologie (Engels)

15th century, extended form of older Middle High German wegelāgen, from Old High German weg (“way, road”) + lāgōn (“lie in ambush”), the latter derived from lāga (“lying, laying; ambush”), whence modern Lage. The form in -ern through association with lagern (“to rest, camp”), which is not immediately related, but ultimately from the same root.
