(Schwyzer 310, 414, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 176); to this thematic root-present, from where all forms mentioned come, there is nowhere a direct correspondent. A zero grade nasalpresent is supposed however in [[λαγγάζω]] [[leave off]] and Lat. [[langueō]] [[be weak]]. There is a primary, also zero grade aorist <b class="b3">λαγά-σαι</b> with the present [[λαγαίω]] [[leave off]] and several nouns, e.g. [[λαγαρός]]. A full grade <b class="b2">ō-</b>form is retained in Northgerm., e.g. OWNo. [[slōkr]], Swed. [[slōk]] [[who walks about]], [[deteriorated man]], with Swed. [[slōka]] [[walk about]], usually <b class="b2">hang weakly (let ...)</b>. - More forms in WP. 2, 712ff., Pok. 959ff. An IE <b class="b2">*sleh₂g-</b> is perhaps possible, Pok. 959.<br />See also: s. auch [[λαγαίω]], [[λαγαρός]], [[λαγγάζω]], [[λωγάνιον]], [[λωγάς]].
