λαγαρός slack, loose; thin, weak laxus loose, slack, yielding श्लक्ष्ण tender, soft lacc slack slākkär sad

adj a-stem weak slack Maybe from Proto-Indo-European *slogos, from the root *(s)leg- (‘to weaken’). Compare Old Irish lacc (‘slack’), Latin laxus (‘slack, loose’), Tocharian A slākkär (‘sad’), and perhaps Ancient Greek λαγαρός (lagarós, ‘slack, loose; thin, weak’) and Sanskrit श्लक्ष्ण (ślakṣṇa, ‘tender, soft’).
