editEtymology
editFrom Old Irish loittid, from Proto-Celtic *lottô, from Proto-Indo-European *lewh₁ (“to cut off, separate, free”), see also Latin luō (“expiate, pay”), Sanskrit लून (lūna, “sever, cut forth, destroy, annihilate”), English loose, Old Armenian լուծանեմ (lucanem) and Albanian lirë.[1] Stokes prefers a comparison with Proto-Germanic *lutōną (“to conceal, hide”), *lūtaną (“to bow down”).
