Word: полотно́,
Near etymology: полоте́нце, укр. полотно́, блр. полотно́, др.-русск. полотьно, цслав. платьно, болг. платно́, сербохорв. пла́тно, словен. plátnọ, чеш., слвц. plátno, польск. pɫótno, в.-луж. pɫótno, н.-луж. рɫоtnо.
Further etymology: Праслав. *роltьnо родственно др.-инд. раṭаs м. "ткань, одежда, покрывало, картина" (из *раltа-), возм., также ср.-в.-н. valte, valde "ткань для обертывания одежды", алб. раlё "складка, ряд" (Фортунатов, ВВ 6, 217; Уленбек, Aind. Wb. 153; РВВ 29, 336; Г. Майер, Alb. Wb. 320; Шрадер--Неринг 1, 325). Недостоверна связь со ст.-слав. платъ (Преобр. II, 97), а также с гот. ainfalþs "простой", греч. διπλάσιος "толстый", δίπαλτος "двойной" (см. об этом Гофман, Gr. Wb. 60). Происхождение из ср.-в.-н. valte невозможно, вопреки Хирту (РВВ 23, 336). Фонетически недопустимо сближение слав. *роltьnо со шв. раltа "лоскут", вопреки Маценауэру (LF 13, 161).
