Verb

IPA: /daː/, /daˤː/
Rhymes: -aː, -aˤː Etymology: From Arabic دَعَا (daʕā, “to call, call upon God, pray”). The sense is from the construction دَعَا عَلَى (daʕā ʕalā, “to imprecate, pray for divine vengeance against”). The same generalisation in the sense of “to curse, swear, abuse” is found in some Arabic dialects, though only for the prepositional construction, not the verb as such.
