Etymology
From Middle English loten, lotien, from Old English *lotian, a variant (influenced by Old English lot (“fraud; deceit”)) of lutian (“to lie hid; be concealed; lurk; skulk; be latent”), from Proto-Germanic *lutōną (“to conceal; hide; lurk”). Cognate with Gothic 𐌻𐌿𐍄𐍉𐌽 (lutōn, “to deceive”).
