Etymology

From East Baltic, just as Estonian lina. Compare Lithuanian linas and Latvian lini.

Hypothetised to be derived from Proto-Indo-European *lino-, although it's impossible to reconstruct a common PIE protoform due to discrepancies with other European branches and absence of cognates outside of Europe.

If originally a non-IE loanword, locating the source is impossible because cultivation of linen was widespread in the region since the Neolithic.
