Etimologia (English)
In summary
Of dialectal origin, likely from Middle English louten (“to bow, bend low, stoop over”), from Old English lūtan, from Proto-Germanic *lūtaną. Cognate with Old Norse lútr (“stooping”), Gothic 𐌻𐌿𐍄𐍉𐌽 (lutōn, “to deceive”). Non-Germanic cognates are probably Old Church Slavonic лоудити (luditi, “to deceive”), Serbo-Croatian lud and Albanian lut (“to beg, pray”).
