Paveldėta iš senoji Aukštosios Vokietijos: tehhant

Sutampa su Middle Low German: dēken

In summary

From Middle High German dechant, techant, from Old High German tehhant, tehhan, from Proto-West Germanic *dekan (“deacon”), from Latin decanus (“dean”). Doublet of Dekan, a 15th-century borrowing.
In Middle Low German dēken, the full vowel in the second syllable was protected by adaptation to various Latin suffixes. The initial d- was also restored by relatinisation; compare already Old High German degan (possibly from spoken Romance).
