Latin alternative form of lixa (lye; water). Marked as "dubious" Leasnam (talk) 02:46, 4 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

"RFV-failed". Lindsay 1891, cited below by Nicodene, argues that "lixetiam" (read/printed by some editions as "lix etiam") is really just a corruption of "lixaetiam" (lixa etiam); in any case, the gender and oblique forms seem to be unattested, so I'm removing them now. It seems like there could be an argument for keeping the form but adding more explanation of why it is dubious.--Urszag (talk) 10:39, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
