Etymology
From Middle High German dach, from Old High German dah, from Proto-West Germanic *þak, from Proto-Germanic *þaką, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *teg-. Compare German Low German Dack, Dutch dak, English thack, thatch, Danish tag. Akin to Latin toga (“garment”) and Ancient Greek στέγος (stégos, “roof”).
