[edit]Pronunciation
[edit]- (5th BCE Attic) IPA(key): /dǎi̯.ɔː/
- (1st CE Egyptian) IPA(key): /ˈdɛ.o/
- (4th CE Koine) IPA(key): /ˈðɛ.o/
- (10th CE Byzantine) IPA(key): /ˈðe.o/
- (15th CE Constantinopolitan) IPA(key): /ˈðe.o/
Etymology 1
[edit]From Proto-Hellenic *dáyyō; ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *deh₂w-. The linguist Douglas Adams suggests that the term derives from Proto-Indo-European *dh₂u-yé-ti.[1] However, it may also be derived from Proto-Indo-European *déh₂u-ye-ti.[2] Cognates include Proto-Celtic *dauyeti, Tocharian A twās; perhaps related to Latin duellum, bellum (“war”). Perhaps etymologically related to dagger and Sanskrit दु॒नोति॑ (dunóti).
Verb
[edit]δαίω • (daíō)
- (transitive) to light up, to kindle, to set on fire
