Old English l?g, leag "lye," from Proto-Germanic *laugo (cognates: Middle Dutch loghe, Dutch loog, Old High German louga, German Lauge "lye"), from PIE root *leue- "to wash" (see lave). The substance was formerly used in place of soap, hence Old High German luhhen "to wash," Old Norse laug "hot bath, hot spring," Danish l?rdag, Swedish l?rdag "Saturday," literally "washing-day." Chamber-lye in early Modern English was the name for urine used as a detergent.
