"lauks" meaning in Latvian

See lauks in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: [lāūks] Audio: lv-riga-lauks.ogg
Rhymes: -øyks Etymology: From Proto-Baltic *lawk-, from Proto-Indo-European *lowkós (“open space; glade”), from Proto-Indo-European *lewk- (“to shine; bright; to see”), whence also the Latvian adjective lauks (“light (color)”) (q.v.). As a noun (with intonational change), the meaning evolution was probably “light, clear (place)” > “open place” > “field.” Cognates include Lithuanian laũkas, Old High German lōh (“forest clearing overgrown with bushes”) (< *lauh) Old Prussian laucks, Sanskrit लोकः (lokáḥ, “free space, clearing; world”), Latin lūcus (“sacred grove”) (< “glade, clearing near a grove”).
