Etymology
In summary
PIE word *ḱóm Borrowed from Irish go leor and Scottish Gaelic gu leòr, gu leòir (“till sufficient, enough, plenty”) (compare Manx dy liooar), from Irish go, Scottish Gaelic gu (“to; till, until”) + Irish leor, Scottish Gaelic leòr (“ample, sufficient”); go, gu are derived from Old Irish co, cu (“with”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ḱóm (“beside, by; near; with”); while leor, leòr are from Old Irish leor, from lour (“enough, sufficient”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *leh₂w- (“to gain; to seize; a benefit; a prize”).
