динь

Carpathian Rusyn

Etymology

Inherited from Proto-Slavic *dьnь (“day”).

Noun

динь • (dynʹ)

  1. day; daytime
    Antonym: нуч (nuč)

Ket

Etymology 1

Inherited from Proto-Ketic *dīˑn (“hide”, verb incorporate base),[1][2] possibly derived from Proto-Ketic *dʲiˤgʌ (“hide, cover”, infinitive verb).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /¹din/, [diˑnʲ˧]

Verb

динь (dīnʲ) (action nominal)

  1. hiding, the act of hiding

Etymology 2

Inherited from Proto-Yeniseian *dʲin (“day, daybreak”).[3]

(Editor's note: Not reconstructed by Sergej A. Starostin. In CHYD, the Ket (and Yug) lexemes are compared only directly with the distantly related and scantily recorded Pumpokol, which feature Pumpokol бичидинь (bičidinʲ, “evening [Russian gloss: вечеръ]”)[4] and Pumpokol хангачеди́нь (xaŋgačedínʲ, “day, daybreak? [Russian gloss: день”),[5] which all possess the same ending, -dinʲ, resemblant to this Ket term, and may shine light into the antiquity of this root.

Also compared by CHYD to Proto-Kottic *tekan ~ *dekan (“light”),[6] from whence Kott tegan (“light”);[7][8] a further potential parallel, though not listed as a direct descendant of Proto-Yeniseian *dʲiːn due to the anlaut disparity (if genuine, Kott *c̔egan would be expected.))

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /¹din/, [diˑnʲ˧]

Noun

динь (dīnʲ) n (no plural)

  1. dawning, daybreak; early-morning hours
