Proto-Slavic

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Cognate with Proto-Germanic *dalą ~ *dalaz n or m (“valley”), Welsh dol f (“valley”), suggesting Proto-Indo-European *dʰól(h₂)os (“valley; vault, cavity”).[1][2][3] Relation with Ancient Greek θόλος (thólos, “cavity”) or borrowing from Germanic is usually rejected.

The adverb was derived from the accusative of the noun.

Noun

[edit]

*dȍlъ m[4][5][6][7]

  1. hole, cavity
  2. ditch, moat
  3. tomb, grave
  4. valley
  5. (South Slavic) riverbed
  6. (North Slavic) bottom (low part of something)

Declension

[edit]

Milleit (see Derksen's comment in EDSIL) assumes that the u-stem declension, attested in OCS, Lechitic, Czech, Ukrainian, is due to association with the antonym *vьrxъ (“top”) (u-stem).
