Proto-Indo-European

Etymology

From the stem *delh₁gʰ- (~ to be long; to last, endure), found in Ancient Greek ἐνδελεχέω (endelekhéō, to continue), ἐνδελεχής (endelekhḗs, continuous) and probably Latin indulgeō (to concede), which appears to be a compound of a marginally attested root *del(h₁)- (long) (cf. Russian длина́ (dliná), Old Czech dél (length), Proto-Slavic *dьliti (to last, prolong, delay) and Old Norse tálma (to hinder)) plus an unknown root *h₁egʰ- or suffix *-gʰ-.

Resemblance to the synonym *dlongʰos is conspicuous and probably not by coincidence, but a formal connection is difficult, due to the presence of the laryngeal in one but not the other.

Adjective

*dl̥h₁gʰós (non-ablauting)

  1. long
