    النطق

    /ˈflaks/ /ˈflæks/

    علم أصول الكلمات

    [ 'flaks ] (noun.) before 12th century. West Germanic, representing Proto-Germanic *flahsom, from Proto-Indo-European *plek- (“to plait”). Cognate with Old Frisian flax, Old Saxon *flahs (Dutch vlas), Old High German flahs (German Flachs); the Northern Germanic (and most likely the Gothic too in the Deutsches Wörterbuch of Jakob und Wilhelm Grimm: "however, Old Norse hör ... The Gothic word has not been transmitted, but one might guess harvs") stem is different.
