語源

Uncertain. Possibly:

• from Proto-Indo-European *lemb- (“to hang loosely, hang limply”), the same tentative root as Sanskrit लम्बते (lambate, “hangs down”) and English limp,^[1] a nasal-infixed form of *leb-;
• or from Proto-Indo-European *len-, whence Lithuanian linta (“ribbon”) and Old Norse linnr (“whether”). (Can this⁽⁺⁾ etymology be sourced?)
