Etymology

Inherited from Old East Slavic плесна (plesna), from Proto-Slavic *pľusna, an alternative form of *plesno, from Proto-Balto-Slavic *pl(j)ousk-. Pokorny compares Latin plautus (flatfooted), Latin plaudo (I applaud), Ancient Greek πλαίσιον (plaísion, oblong case), but a shared origin for all of these words is far from certain; possibly [1] Proto-Indo-European *pleth₂- (flat). Cognate with Latvian plauksta. Also compare плюск (pljusk, flattened spot).
