Noun [Latin]

IPA: /ˈliɡ.num/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈlʲɪŋnʊ̃ˑ] [Classical-Latin], /ˈliɲ.ɲum/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈliɲːum] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: From Proto-Italic *legnom, from Proto-Indo-European *leǵ-no-m (“that which is collected”), from *leǵ- (“to collect”), with the Italic form interpreted as "wood collected for firemaking". An alternative derivation from Proto-Indo-European *legʰ- (“to lie”), and associated interpretation as "stray wood", seems equally possible, phonetically and semantically.
