This lexeme is found in a metrical inscription from Sardis that has not yet been dated accurately.

1.1.2Forms

adv. (?) laafcν LW 12.8 (Sardis)  

An adverb in -cν modifying the verb wroλt is the analysis adopted here (thus Sasseville 2021a:169), although a direct object in -cν from a stem in -c(i)- is equally possible, depending on the status of tulod and whether it belongs to either the main clause (thus Sasseville ibid.) or the subordinate clause with kot lumpaas.

1.1.3Meaning

No meaning has been suggested, only an etymological connection to Lyd. lafod; see Brandenstein 1931b:33, Meriggi 1935a:115 with n. 113 and Gusmani 1964a:157.
