語源

From in- and an unattested verb *dulgeō, from Proto-Italic *dolɣēō, from Proto-Indo-European *delǵʰ- (to become fixed); cognate with Welsh dala (to catch), Gothic 𐍄𐌿𐌻𐌲𐌾𐌰𐌽 (tulgjan, to reinforce), and perhaps Sanskrit दृह् (dṛh, to make firm).

The initial in- may be, instead of the above, derived from a negated form of an unattested adjectival Proto-Indo-European *n-dlgʰ-ro- (not hard), thus giving indulgeō an original meaning of "to not be hard toward" > "to be lenient toward" > "to indulge". This is semantically smoother than if the "in-" were to mean "in".

Possibly related to longus, Ancient Greek ἐνδελεχής (endelekhḗs, continuous), thus originally with the meaning of "being persistent, patient".
