Proto-Slavic[edit]
Etymology[edit]
From Proto-Indo-European *bʰago. The original root *bʰag appears to have referred to "eating, food, wealth", hence the provider of food and wealth, i.e. "god". Compare Old Church Slavonic ѹбогъ (ubogŭ, “poor”), богатъ (bogatŭ, “rich”).
Due to the absence of Winter's law, sometimes assumed to be an Iranian borrowing. Compare Old Persian 𐏎 (baga, “god”), Sanskrit epithet often applied to gods भग (bhága, “dispenser, gracious lord, patron”).
