Etymology
Inherited from Old Spanish losenja, from Old Occitan lauzenja, lausenga, from Old French losenge (“deception, flattery”), either from Frankish *lausungu (“deception, lying”), in which case cognate with English leasing (“lying, fraud, falsehood, deceit”); or, from Late Latin laudemia (with the ending by analysis with the opposite blasphemia), from Latin laus (“praise”). See: English Nouns '
leasing', Latin Nouns '
laus'.
