There are a few nominal formations, which resemble the Greek forms: Lith. [[lãpas]] [[leaf]], Alb. [[lapë]] [[rag]], [[leaf]], [[peritoneum]] (: [[λοπός]]), Lith. [[lõpas]] [[rag]], [[piece]] (: [[λῶπος]]; also OE [[lōf]] m. [[band of the forehead]]??, Holthausen IF 32, 340), with Russ. [[lápotь]] [[shoe of bark]] ([[lapotók]] [[rag]], [[piece]]); quite doubtful OE [[leber]], [[læfer]] f. [[rush]], [[cane]], [[metal plate]] (: [[λέπρα]]?; Holthausen IF 48, 255). With [[λέπος]] one compared also Lat. [[s-]]stem [[lepōs]] [[fine-ness]], [[delicacy]], and the Slav. extension in Russ. [[lépest]] [[rag]], [[piece]], [[leaf of a flower]]. Given the productivity of these formations and the varying meanings we may have parallel creations. - Further, partly very doubtful and debated forms in WP. 2, 429f., Pok. 678, W.-Hofmann s. [[lepidus]], Fraenkel Lit. et. Wb. s. [[lãpas]], [[lõpas]], also [[lèpti]] [[be coddled]], Vasmer Russ. et. Wb. s. [[lépest]], [[lápotь]], [[lópotõk]]; with rich lit. - We can safely conclude that the verb is not IE: there is hardly a formal agreement, nor does the meaning agree well. So the verb will be Pre-Greek. Note the forms [[λεπάγιον]], [[λεπακινός]], [[λέπασμα]], [[λέπυρον]], [[λεπύχανον]], [[λέπρα]], [[λώψ]], [[λῶπος]] etc. The verb may be compared with [[ὀλόπτω]] and [[ὀλούφω]], which would also point to a non-IE word.
