Where this word comes from

De Vaan suggests a derivation from Proto-Italic *tlokʷōr, from Proto-Indo-European *tlokʷ-, from Proto-Indo-European *telkʷ-. The perfect participle locūtus was probably formed in analogy to the type represented by solūtus, which exists beside the perfect form soluī and the base verb solvō. For cognates, compare Sanskrit तर्क (tarka, “conjecture”), Old Church Slavonic тлъкъ (tlŭkŭ, “interpreter”) and Old Irish do·tluchethar (“to ask”), ad·tluchedar (“to thank”).
