Proto-Slavic
Etymology
From *lȏvъ (“hunting, hunt”) + *-iti, from Proto-Balto-Slavic *law-. Cognate with Lithuanian lavùs (“adroit, clever”), lãvyti, lãvinti (“to train, to develop”), Latvian lavît (“to catch”), although per Derksen the latter verb is probably a Slavic borrowing. Per Derksen, no clear cognates outside of Balto-Slavic, but Vasmer adds Ancient Greek λεία (leía, “booty”) (Doric λᾱία (lāía)), ἀπολαύω (apolaúō, “to enjoy”), Gothic 𐌻𐌰𐌿𐌽 (laun, “reward”), Old Norse laun (“reward”), Sanskrit लोत (lótaṃ, “booty”) (also लोत्र (lótraṃ, “booty”)), Latin lucrum (“gain, profit”), Old Irish fo-lad (“wealth”) < *uɸo-lauto-, lúag (“praise”).
