Etimologija (Anglų k.)

In summary

Borrowed from Latin īnsecta (“insects”) (attested in Pliny only in the plural), a calque of ἔντομα (éntoma, “insects”, literally “dissected”), from their segmented bodies, from εν- (en-) + τόμος (tómos, “slice”); calqued based on īnsectus (“notched, dissected”), perfect passive participle of īnsecō.
