Etymology
From Old Danish las, læs, from Old Norse hlass n, from Proto-Germanic *hlassą (“load”), cognate with Norwegian lass, Swedish lass. The Danish form has taken over the vowel from the verb læsse. The Germanic noun is derived from the verb *hlaþaną (“to load”), hence Old Norse hlaða (“to stack”), Danish lade. See: Swedish Nouns '
lass', Old Norse Nouns '
hlaða', Danish Nouns '
lade'.
