lende

lende f (plural lende, definite lendja, definite plural lendet)

Uncertain. The original form was likely lend m and lende arose as a back-formation from its plural. The variant with vl- is almost certainly secondary.

# Borrowed from Vulgar Latin glāns, glandis (“acorn”), whence actually gjëndër (“gland”), although the initial l- would be left unexplained.

From Proto-Albanian *mālā, akin to Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon, “apple”), Latin mālum (“apple”), either a cognate or borrowed from either of the two. Likely from a western dialect borrowed from Doric Greek. A borrowing from Latin would be unusually early, as the shift from *ā to o, characteristic of inherited words, would not be paralleled in any other Latin loan. Direct inheritance is formally possible, though dubious given the defined areal distribution and the absence of any clear cognate outside of it. See Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon) for further connections. Sense 2 is a common metaphor, compare Ancient Greek μῆλον (mêlon, “cheek”) etc.
