Etimologia (Anglès)

First attested in the 16th century. Rebracketing of earlier daga, in constructions such as a daga (“the dagger”), uma daga (“a dagger”), reanalyzed as a adaga, uma adaga. Daga was inherited from Old Galician-Portuguese daga; its ultimate origin is uncertain, perhaps a borrowing from Italian daga, or directly from its etymon, Vulgar Latin *daca, thought to derive from the feminine of Dācus (“Dacian”), as in arma Dāca (“Dacian weapon”), referring to the weapon’s origins in Dacia. Cognates include Occitan, Italian, Spanish, and Galician daga, Dutch dagge, German Degen, and English dagger.
