Phono-semantic compound (形聲形声, OC *laːɡ) : semantic (“horse”) + phonetic (OC *neb, *laːɡ, *kuː).

Same word as (OC *laːɡ, “to unravel”) (Schuessler, 2007). See there for more.

Alternatively, Blažek and Schwarz (2017) suggest that this is perhaps a loan from a hypothetical Tocharian compound *klyælylyæ-yäkwæ (“standing of horses”), but this seems to be highly speculative.

The Taiwanese Hokkien sense is an orthographic borrowing from Japanese 駅(えき) (eki).
