lawn: English has two words lawn. ‘Grassy area’ [16] is ultimately the same word as land. It is an alteration of an earlier laund ‘glade’, which came from Old French launde ‘heath’, a borrowing from the same prehistoric Germanic source as produced English land. Lawn was originally used for ‘glade’ too, and it was not until the 18th century that its present-day meaning emerged. Lawn ‘fine linen or cotton’ [15] probably comes from Laon, the name of a town in northern France where linen was formerly manufactured.
