Origin:
The word "relinquish" comes from the Latin verb "relinquere," meaning "to leave behind" or "to abandon." This verb is formed from the prefix "re-" (meaning "back" or "again") and the verb "linquere" (meaning "to leave").
The Proto-Italic root "lik-" ultimately derives from the Proto-Indo-European root "likʷ-," which means "to leave." This root is also the origin of other words related to abandonment or departure, such as "relict," "leave," and "abandon."
