köken: Borrowed from Medieval Latin elixir, from Arabic اَلْإِكْسِير (al-ʔiksīr), from Ancient Greek ξηρίον (xēríon, “medicinal powder”), from ξηρός (xērós, “dry”).
köken: From Old Galician-Portuguese poçon, probably a semi-learned borrowing from Latin pōtiōnem, pōtiōnem, from pōtō (“to drink”). Compare the inherited doublet peçonha.
köken: From Southern Luzon axis *gayúma (“love-charm”). Compare Kapampangan gayuma. See also Cebuano gugma (“love”). The sense of “magnet” is coined in the 1960s as an allusion to the effect of the magical potion.
