詞源

來源不確定，有兩種解釋：

• 源自早期的lītera（是否存在還有爭議），輔音加長（也被稱作littera rule），源自古拉丁語 leitera (見於公元前122年，但Ernout & Meillet 認為應是lino），源自早期形容詞 *lei-tos的複數形 (參見opera ← opus)，與拉丁語 linō (“污漬”)、原始意大利語 *linō (“污漬”)有關，源自原始印歐語 *h₂leyH- (“污漬”)。其變體構擬出的原始印歐語詞根是*leyt- (“撓”)。

但 de Vaan 指出，源自lino的過去分詞實際上應該是有短 i 的litus，這一來源缺少其他關於 *leitos的證據，“詞形上不可信”。

• 或可能通過伊特拉斯坎語，源自（或有關）古希臘語 διφθέρᾱ (diphthérā, “皮革”)，Hesychius 認為也可以表示碑。源頭不明。
