Etymology
No exact cognates in other Slavic languages, however, formally resembles 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬,. A connection with 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬 has been proposed by Oettinger, from *gleǵ- “weak, soft”. Kloekhorst nevertheless argues that “Although ON kløkkr indeed seems to point to a root *gleǵ-”, Lith. glẽžnas can only reflect *gleǵʰ- because of the absence of Winter’s Law (we would have expect *gleǵ- to have yielded Lith. **glẽž-). If both forms are indeed cognate, we have to assume that the geminate -kk- in ON is due to Kluge’s Law (any stop followed by an *n (*-Tn-) yields a voiceless geminate (-tt-))”.
