From its stem form leg- come English legal, legislator [17] (which goes back to a Latin compound meaning literally ‘one who proposes a law’), and legitimate [15]. Loyal is a doublet of legal, acquired via Old French rather than directly from Latin. Another derivative of legwas the Latin verb lēgāre ‘depute, commission, bequeath’, which has given English colleague, college, delegate [14], legacy [14], and legation [15].=> colleague, college, delegate, legacy, loyallegal (adj.)mid-15c.
