Ancient Greek
Etymology
From Proto-Indo-European *diwyós (“heavenly”), from Lua error in Module:affix/templates at line 70: The |lang= parameter is not used by this template. Place the language code in parameter 1 instead.. Cognate with Sanskrit दिव्य (divyá), and related to Ζεύς (Zeús, “Zeus”), Latin deus (“god”), and the first element of English Tuesday.
Pronunciation
- (5th BCE Attic) IPA(key): /dîː.os/
- (1st CE Egyptian) IPA(key): /ˈdi.os/
- (4th CE Koine) IPA(key): /ˈði.os/
- (10th CE Byzantine) IPA(key): /ˈði.os/

Adjective
δῖος • (dîos)
- (poetic) heavenly, divine, noble (Homeric epithet of persons and gods)
- 800 BCE – 600 BCE, Homer, Iliad 1.5–7:
- Διὸς δ᾽ ἐτελείετο βουλή,
ἐξ οὗ δὴ τὰ πρῶτα διαστήτην ἐρίσαντε
Ἀτρεΐδης τε ἄναξ ἀνδρῶν καὶ δῖος Ἀχιλλεύς.- Diòs d᾽ eteleíeto boulḗ,
ex hoû dḕ tà prôta diastḗtēn erísante
Atreḯdēs te ánax andrôn kaì dîos Akhilleús. - and the will of Zeus was fulfilled,
starting when they first stood apart and quarreled:
[Agamemnon] the son of Atreus, lord of men, and divine Achilles.
- Diòs d᾽ eteleíeto boulḗ,
- Διὸς δ᾽ ἐτελείετο βουλή,
Inflection
Lua error in Module:grc-decl/decl at line 589: Declensions were found that matched the ending of the masculine “δῖος”, but the corresponding feminine and neuter endings “-ᾱ”, “-α”, “-η”, “-ον” do not match the feminine “δῖᾰ”.
