Etymology
From by simplification of a word-final sequence of two plosives (the variant nominative/accusative form  shows the addition of a vowel as an alternative). The etymology is : there is no consensus on the cognate set, the manner of descent (inheritance vs. borrowing), or the form and ultimate origin of the etymon. Possible cognates include 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 (or perhaps only its variant form 🇨🇬, reconstructed as the ancestor of modern dialectal 🇨🇬) 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬 and 🇨🇬.

Pokorny reconstructs the Latin and Greek words as inherited from from a root  or. De Vaan derives the Latin, Greek and Armenian forms from, and follows Meiser in explaining the loss of initial *g- in Latin as a result of long-distance dissimilation. Per Nielsen, the Latin and Greek words can be derived from *glakt-, 🇨🇬 can be derived from *g(a)l(ḱ)t- (requiring an initial non-palatal velar), and 🇨🇬 can perhaps be derived from *ǵal(K)- (requiring an initial palatal velar); on the basis of the variability in the initial consonant and the unusual root structure, Nielsen considers the root to be non-Indo-European in origin.

There have been attempts to derive the word instead from the root.
 * Garnier, Sagart and Sagot 2017 cite Garnier 2016's reconstruction of a verb >, supposing this was subsequently reanalyzed as  and lost the prefix to yield the attested verb . The noun  would then derive by back-formation from the verb.

Etymology
Generally assumed to be a borrowing of, displacing the native 🇨🇬, inherited from the same Latin term, by the early 13th century. 🇨🇬 derives from, from ,

The displacement of 🇨🇬 may have been assisted by influence from early, , from , due to lac's sudden spread in Old French following the annexation of English controlled Normandy into the kingdom of France in 1204. An outright borrowing of the term from Middle English rather than from the Latin is also not outside the realm of possibility, as the earliest attestations of 🇨🇬 are in the Eadwine Psalter (written by Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman scribes in England) and Erec and Enide (an Arthurian romance, whose author was heavily influenced by English, Anglo-Norman, and Celtic writings).

The, , , which some theorise as leading to the Old French form (with c), is actually derived from a different Latin root related to , and possibly conflated with. See.
