Etymology

[edit]

Inherited from Old Czech ľutovati (to be angry, to rage; to be sorry), from Proto-Slavic *ľutovati, from *ľutъ. By surface analysis, lítý +‎ -ovat. The change of the original meaning of lítý (ferocious) to feeling sorry may have been influenced by the phrase Je mi líto. ("I am sorry.") whose today's meaning may have originated in "I feel bad/poignant.".
