Reconstruction:Proto-Germanic/taglą
Proto-Germanic
editEtymology
editFrom Proto-Indo-European *doḱ- (“hair of the tail”), from Proto-Indo-European *deḱ- (“to tear, shred, fray”). Cognate with Old Irish dúal (“strand or lock of hair”), Sanskrit दशा (daśā, “fringe”), as well as perhaps Serbo-Croatian dlȁka (“a single hair”).
Alternatively, a diminutive of the root underlying either Proto-Germanic *tahjaną (“to tear”) or *takkô (“branch, spike”).[1]
