Etymology

Of unclear origin.

Traditionally derived from Proto-Indo-Aryan *lakṛta-, from Proto-Indo-European *lek- (“to bend, leg”), and compared with Latin lacertus (“the upper arm”), Ancient Greek λάξ (láx, “with the foot/heel”), Old Norse leggr (“leg”), and Persian لگد‎ (lagad, “kick, recoil”). Alternatively, Munda origins have also been suggested.

See also लगुड (laguḍa, “stick, staff, club”), which is a phonetic variant.
