köken: Borrowed from Old Church Slavonic сланина (slanina), from Proto-Slavic *solnina, from *solnъ (“salt”) + *-ina. Compare Bulgarian сланина (slanina), Serbo-Croatian slanina.
köken: Uncertain. Related to бу́ла (búla, “Turkish woman”), so the meaning may have shifted by metonymy to refer to certain types of face veils that Turkish women once wore (e.g. yashmak).
köken: From the same word family as lašė́ti (“to drip, flow in drops”), i.e. "meat that drips (with oil)", though the exact morphological details are unclear. Either analyzed as laš-iniai, in which case directly from lašė́ti, or analyzed as lašin-iai, in which case from the related lãšinti (“to drip, pour in drops”).
