ラテン語のlaudis「賛美する、歌う」から。PIE*leu「歌う」、擬音語、語源的にはliedと同じ。

laud (v.)

late 14c., from Old French lauder "praise, extol," from Latin laudare "to praise, commend, honor, extol, eulogize," from laus (genitive laudis) "praise, fame glory." Probably cognate with Old English leoe "song, poem, hymn," from Proto-Germanic *leuthan (cognates: Old Norse ljoe "strophe," German Lied "song," Gothic liuton "to praise"), and from an echoic PIE root *leu-. Related: Lauded; lauding.
