Uncertain whether from Proto-Indo-European *wleykʷ- (“to flow, run”), as in liqueō, or Proto-Italic *lakiō or *lakʷiō (“I draw, pull”), so dē- + laciō ("to draw away, drain"), of which the base verb is a hapax and possibly a nonce word. The latter root has plenty internal, but no certain external cognates; even so, De Vaan 2008 prefers this on semantic grounds, and k over kʷ due to its absence in the many cognates - but compare dēliquō ~ dēlicō (“I clear off, strain”) from leikʷ-.
Cognate to Latin sublica (“wooden stake or pile”), colliciae (“gutter”), ēlix (“furrow in a com field for draining off water”), ēliciō (“to coax, draw forth”), illecebra (“enticement”), dēliciae (“delight”). Connection with laqueus (“loop, rope snare”) uncertain.
