liscio

Possibly from Provençal lis, liso, from French lisse, from Old High German lise (Modern German leise), or alternatively from a Vulgar Latin *liseus or *lisius, perhaps from Ancient Greek λισσός (lissós). Compare Spanish, Portuguese liso, Catalan llis, Sicilian lisciu, Friulian lis, Romansch glisch.
