Rhymes: -au̯ Etymology: From Proto-Malayic *limaw, from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *limaw; reconstructed by Robert Blust (compare Old Javanese limo (“a citrus fruit, the lime”); also compare Fijian moli (“an orange, general name for species of citrus fruits”), Tongan moli (“orange or other citrus fruit”) that are assumed to have undergone metathesis). The claim that this form is derived from Portuguese limão is false based on the cognates found in Old Javanese and Oceanic languages.
