Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from Middle English 'las', from Old French 'laz' (cord, snare), tracing back to the Vulgar Latin 'laceum' and ultimately the Latin 'laqueus' meaning 'noose' or 'snare'. Over centuries, the meaning shifted from a cord or string used for fastening to the delicate, openwork fabric we recognize today.
