Proto-Slavic

Etymology

From Proto-Indo-European *h₃loǵʰ-eh₂, which originally probably just meant branch or log[1]. Cognate with Ancient Greek ὀλόγινον (ológinon, “vine”) and Hittite [script needed] (alk-, “branch”). The lemma has been also compared to Lithuanian lazdà (“staff”), Latvian lagzda (“hazel”), which however exhibit a different suffix.

Noun

*lozà f [2][3]

  1. vine
