  1. In Greek it is λακωνικός and it means &quot;related to Lakonia&quot;. Lakonia is an area in Greece where the city of Sparta is located.

    In ancient times however, Lakonia WAS considered Sparta.

    Therefore, lakonikos would mean &quot;related to Sparta&quot;.

    ♦♦♦Now watch this!♦♦♦

    Lakonikos has ALSO ANOTHER MEANING!

    It means to be brief and accurate when talking, without saying too many details or unnecessary things!

    There is also an ancient saying about that:

    &quot;Το λακωνίζειν εστί φιλοσοφείν &quot;

    meaning:

    &quot;To be brief and accurate is a whole philosophy&quot;

    Hope this helps!


  2. It&#039;s pertaining to someone from Laconia, or, Sparta.  It means abrupt, kinda rude.. to the point speech style.  Here&#039;s a good reference..

  3. It is a place name. Laconia

    A literal translation would mean &quot;a small pond&quot; likely for water fowl.
