Italian[edit]
Etymology 1[edit]
From Latin deus, from earlier *dẹ̄vos, from Old Latin deivos, from Proto-Italic *deiwos, from Proto-Indo-European *deywós, derived from the root *dyew- (“sky, heaven”).
Pronunciation[edit]
- IPA(key): /ˈdi.o/, (traditional) */ˈdi.o/
Audio (file) - Rhymes: -io
- Hyphenation: dì‧o
- Though the modern standard prefers not to geminate the initial /d/, it is geminated in traditional pronunciation (as reflected by the usage of gli before dei) and the pronunciation in all the regional Italian varieties, excluding those that don't have syntactic gemination.
Noun[edit]
dio m (plural dei or (archaic or dialectal) dii, feminine dea, feminine plural dee)
- god, deity
- (informal) one who is remarkably skilled in something; ace, crackerjack, wiz
