Origin: PG [a word of Pre-Greek origin]

Etymology: Quite doubtfull λαχή in A. Th. 914 (lyr.) τάφων πατρῴων λαχαί ('the digging' sch.); rather λάχαι to λαγχάνω, s. v. The semantic difficulty to connect λαχαίνω and λάχανον with each other (cf. Schwyzer 725), may perhaps be colved with Debrunner IF 21, 43 (after Fraenkel Denom. 8) in this way, that the only late appearing denominative simplex λαχαίνω is a backformation from the compp., especially ἀμφι-λαχαίνω (ω 242). - Further unclear. In this interpretation disappears the any way doubtfull connection (after Fick 2, 238) with some Celtic words for `spade' v. t., MIr. lāige m. `spade', lāigen f. `lance', s. O'Rahilly Ériu 13, 152 f. - As there is no etym., the word for `vegetables' will be of Pre-Greek origin; on λαχαίνω see above. - On the absence of a preverb J.-L. Perpillou, RPh. 73 (1999) 96.
