Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Αγγλικά: lawe

Κληρονομήθηκε από Παλαιά Αγγλικά: lagu

Συγγενές με Σκωτικά: law

Συγγενές με Ισλανδικά: lög

Συγγενές με Φεροϊκά: lóg

Συγγενές με Νορβηγικά: lov

Συγγενές με Σουηδικά: lag

In summary

From Middle English lawe, laȝe, from Old English lagu (“law”), borrowed from Old Norse lǫg (“law”, literally “things laid down or firmly established”), originally the plural of lag (“layer, stratum, a laying in order, measure, stroke”), from Proto-Germanic *lagą (“that which is laid down”), from Proto-Indo-European *legʰ- (“to lie”). Cognate with Scots law (“law”), Icelandic lög (“things laid down, law”), Faroese lóg (“law”), Norwegian lov (“law”), Swedish lag (“law”), Danish lov (“law”), Finnish laki (“law”). Compare typologically distant cognate Russian уложе́ние (uložénije). Displaced native Old English ǣ and ġesetnes. More at lay.
Not related to legal, nor to French loi, Spanish ley, all of which ultimately derive from Latin lēx, from Proto-Indo-European *leǵ- (“to gather”).
