Etymologia (Angielski)

Dziedziczone z średnioangielski: lawe

Dziedziczone z staroangielski: lagu

Pokrewny z scots: law

Pokrewny z islandzki: lög

Pokrewny z farerski: lóg

Pokrewny z norweski: lov

Pokrewny z szwedzki: lag

Pokrewny z duński: lov

Pokrewny z fiński: laki

In summary

From Middle English lawe, laȝe, from Old English lagu (“law”), borrowed from Old Norse lǫg (“law”, literally “things laid down or firmly established”), originally the plural of lag (“layer, stratum, a laying in order, measure, stroke”), from Proto-Germanic *lagą (“that which is laid down”), from Proto-Indo-European *legʰ- (“to lie”). Cognate with Scots law (“law”), Icelandic lög (“things laid down, law”), Faroese lóg (“law”), Norwegian lov (“law”), Swedish lag (“law”), Danish lov (“law”), Finnish laki (“law”). Compare typologically distant cognate Russian уложе́ние (uložénije). Displaced native Old English ǣ and ġesetnes. More at lay.
Not related to legal, nor to French loi, Spanish ley, all of which ultimately derive from Latin lēx, from Proto-Indo-European *leǵ- (“to gather”).
