луук

Yakut

Etymology

From Russian лук (luk, “onion”), possibly related with English leek. (The etymology at лук (luk) asserts that the Russian word is indeed borrowed from a Germanic source, while the entry for "leek" at Etymonline demurs, and merely states that they may be related.)

Noun

луук • (luuk)

  1. (vegetable) onion (Allium cepa)
