From Gothic ''[[wikt:𐍀𐌻𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰#Gothic| | From Gothic ''*platja'' (attested as ''[[wikt:𐍀𐌻𐌰𐍀𐌾𐌰#Gothic|plapja]]'', likely due to scribal error between graphically similar ''𐍀'' and ''𐍄''), in turn from Latin ''[[wikt:platea#Latin|platēa]]'' and Greek ''[[wikt:πλατεῖα#Ancient_Greek|πλατεῖα]]''. The sense of "town square" is due to German influence. | ||
