From Pre-Latin *lukrom, dissimilated from Proto-Italic *luklom, from Proto-Indo-European *lh₂utlom, from Proto-Indo-European *leh₂w- (“profit, gain”) + *-tlom (“suffix denoting a tool”). Cognate with Ancient Greek ἀπολαύω (apolaúō, “to enjoy”), λείᾱ (leíā), Sanskrit लोत्र (lotra, “booty”), German Lohn (“reward, wages”), Gothic 𐌻𐌰𐌿𐌽 (laun). See: German Nouns '
Lohn', Gothic Nouns '
