Etimologia (Inglese)

From a Vulgar Latin *liccāre (compare French lécher), itself probably from Proto-West Germanic *likkōn. See English lick for more.
Alternatively from an early contraction of *ligicāre, denasalized from *lingicāre, from Classical Latin lingere. This is based on the analogy with *fīccāre (whence Italian ficcare), generally derived from *fīgicāre, from fīgere. However, the last-mentioned etymology (while commonly accepted) is not inevitable and at any rate requires only two theoretical steps, rather than three.
