litus

Etymology
Traditionally derived from, whence perhaps. De Vaan is unconvinced, and prefers a derivation from (with sense development "going away" > "end, side" > "seashore, coast"), from, whence 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬, 🇨🇬.

Noun

 * 1) strand, shore, beach

Usage notes
N.B. The difference between and litus is that ora denotes a coast simply as a border, whereas litus refers exclusively to the sea-coast.
