laetus

Pronunciation

Etymology 1

Unknown; possibly related to alacer (“happy, glad, cheerful”).[1] Often compared to lardum (“fat, bacon lard”) and largus (“abundant, bountiful”),[2][3] presupposing an earlier form *lai-to and earlier *lai-es, but de Vaan finds this reconstruction problematic.[4]
