interesting! French uses the same word for both, "lentille", and German too, "Linse"
Lente for lens and lenteja for lentil in Spanish
Huh. weirdly enough, lens and linse both have unknown roots (old church slavonic too). They could be from a PIE root, or a complete coincidence.
Who knew lentils are so weird?
