Etimología (Inglés)

Heredado de inglés medio: diven

Heredado de inglés antiguo: dȳfan

Cognado con islandés: dýfa

Cognado con bajo alemán: bedaven

In summary

From Middle English diven, duven, from the merger of Old English dȳfan (“to dip, immerse”, transitive weak verb) (from Proto-Germanic *dūbijaną) and dūfan (“to duck, dive, sink, penetrate”, intransitive strong verb) (past participle ġedofen). Cognate with Icelandic dýfa (“to dip, dive”), Low German bedaven (“covered, covered with water”). See also deep, dip.
