Alternative forms

Etymology

    Probably a conflation of Frankish *lattjan (“to hinder, delay”) (from Proto-Germanic *latjaną (“to delay, hinder, stall”), whence archaic English let), *laibijan (“to leave”) / *laibjan (from Proto-Germanic *laibijaną, whence English leave), and *laggjan (“to lay”) (from Proto-Germanic *lagjaną, whence English lay). Compare with laissier. More at relay and delay.
