Etymology
From Old Galician-Portuguese, from Latin lentus. The main sense of "slow" may be a learned one, as opposed to the original inherited meaning of "wet, humid", "moistened, soft", also found in the Old Spanish equivalent. Compare also Portuguese lento, Asturian llentu. See: Latin Adjectives '
lentus', Portuguese Adjectives '
lento', Asturian Adjectives '
llentu'.
