köken: Unknown, identical to Catalan llonja, alonja (“vegetal matter to make birdlime when mixed with resinous substrate”). Hardly related to ajonjolí since this Arabism lacks in Catalan and the composite plant, to which the meaning of birdlime is secondary, has no commonality with sesame. Latin axungia (“lard”) has other descendants.
köken: From Middle Dutch lijm, from Old Dutch *līm, from Proto-West Germanic *līm, from Proto-Germanic *līmaz, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂leyH- (“smooth; slick; sticky; slimy”) (modern English slime).
köken: First attested in the Dong'ui bogam (東醫寶鑑 / 동의보감), 1613, as Early Modern Korean 겨으살이 (Yale: kyeu-sal-i). From 겨울 (gyeoul, “winter”) + 살- (sal-, “to live”) + -이 (-i).
lime (any inorganic material containing calcium, usually calcium oxide (quicklime) or calcium hydroxide (slaked lime)) · chalk · a piece of chalk, or nowadays processed compressed gypsum (calcium sulfate, CaSO₄), that is used for drawing and for writing on a blackboard (chalkboard)
çekim: çoğul kapur-kapur
köken: Inherited from Malay kapur, from Proto-Malayic *kapur, from Proto-Malayo-Polynesian *qapuʀ, from Proto-Austronesian *qapuʀ (“lime, calcium”). Doublet of kamper. The initial k- is unexplained (expected reflex is *hapur) and may indicate an alternate byform *kapuʀ according to Blust and Trussel. Cognates Cognate with Tagalog apog (“lime”), Tsou hapuyu (“lime”), and Eastern Cham ꨆꨚꨭꨩ (kapū).
Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *weyḱs-, possibly a European borrowing for a tree similar to the mistletoe. Compare also Ancient Greek ἰξός (ixós, “mistletoe, birdlime”), Proto-Slavic *višьňa, Proto-Germanic *wīhsilō, and probably Italian visciola (“sour cherry”), the last likely a Germanic borrowing. Traditionally associated with vīrus, although this is unlikely. Also compare Proto-Germanic…
