/ˈljaɾ/

Etimoloxía (inglés)

From Latin ligāre, possibly through the intermediate of Old French lier in the Middle Ages, as it appeared relatively late in Spanish texts. See also the doublet ligar, a semi-learned term, as well as the inherited Old Spanish form legar (“to tie, bind”) (in modern Spanish, this word survives as a rare regionalism, often with a specialized sense such as "tie or bind a sheep for shearing", or "to join together, unite"). Compare Sicilian alligari.
