  "etymology_text": "From Proto-Hellenic *diyyos, from Proto-Indo-European *diwyós (“heavenly”), from *dyew- (“sky”) + *-yós. Cognate with Sanskrit दिव्य (divyá), Latin dīus, and related to Ζεύς (Zeús, “Zeus”), Latin deus (“god”), and the first element of English Tuesday. The Indo-Iranian and Greek terms (which are formally identical) may alternatively be independently formed to to the root *dyew-.\nThe feminine nominative and accusative δῖᾰ (dîa) (attested alongside the expected δῑ́ᾱ (dī́ā)), earliest used in substantive function \"goddess\", is similar in formation and meaning to Sanskrit देवी (devī́, “goddess, celestial”), though it is likely formed independently to Proto-Indo-European *deywós (“god”), and thus not inherited from Proto-Indo-European *déywih₂ (“goddess”).",

The Indo-Iranian and Greek terms (which are formally identical) may alternatively be independently formed to to the root *dyew-.\nThe feminine nominative and accusative δῖᾰ (dîa) (attested alongside the expected δῑ́ᾱ (dī́ā)), earliest used in substantive function \"goddess\", is similar in formation and meaning to Sanskrit देवी (devī́, “goddess, celestial”), though it is likely formed independently to Proto-Indo-European *deywós (“god”), and thus not inherited from Proto-Indo-European *déywih₂ (“goddess”).",
