*Laguz or*Laukaz is the reconstructedProto-Germanic name of thel-rune,*laguz meaning "water" or "lake" and*laukaz meaning "leek". In theAnglo-Saxonrune poem, it is calledlagu "ocean". In theYounger Futhark, the rune is calledlögr "waterfall" in Icelandic andlogr "water" in Norse.

The name of the correspondingGothic letter (𐌻,l) is attested aslaaz in theCodex Vindobonensis 795; a normalized (Ulfilan) Gothic form*lagus is thought to underlie this unconventional spelling.

The rune is identical in shape to the letterl in theRaetic alphabet.

The "leek" hypothesis is based not on the rune poems, but rather on early inscriptions where the rune has been hypothesized to abbreviate*laukaz, a symbol of fertility, see theBülach fibula.

Rune Poem:[1]English Translation:

Old Norwegian

Lögr er, fællr ór fjalle foss;
en gull ero nosser.

A waterfall is a River which falls from a mountain-side;
but ornaments are of gold.

Old Icelandic

Lögr er vellanda vatn
ok viðr ketill
ok glömmungr grund.
lacus lofðungr.

Water is eddying stream
and broadgeysir
and land of the fish.

Anglo-Saxon

Lagu bẏþ leodum langsum geþuht,
gif hi sculun neþan on nacan tealtum
and hi sæẏþa sƿẏþe bregaþ
and se brimhengest bridles ne gẏm[eð].

The ocean seems interminable to men,
if they venture on the rolling bark
and the waves of the sea terrify them
and the stallion of the deep heed not its bridle.
