From Middle English line, from Old English līne (‘cable, hawser’), probably from Latin linea (‘linen thread, string, line’) or linum (‘flax, thread, linen, cable’) or a conflation of both of those words. The English word was influenced by the French ligne (‘line’), which derives from the same Latin word, linea.
