"etymology_text": "Probably borrowed from Old Norse deyja, from Proto-Germanic *dawjaną.\nInheritance from a Old English *dīegan (from the same Proto-Germanic source) is formally possible, but the rarity of deyen's West Germanic cognates and the unlikelihood of a word for a fundamental concept like \"to die\" being totally unattested make borrowing more likely. The borrowing of -ey- as Early Middle English /eːj/ rather than expected /ɛj/ is probably by analogy with correspondences between /eːj/ and -ey- in inherited vocabulary (such as Middle English teyen:Old Norse teygja); similarly, the weak conjugation has been modelled on wreyen:wreyde. Northern forms such as deghe, dieghe are probably yet another instance of analogy (to forms like wreghe for wreyen).",

"etymology_text": "Probably borrowed from Old Norse deyja, from Proto-Germanic *dawjaną.\nInheritance from a Old English *dīegan (from the same Proto-Germanic source) is formally possible, but the rarity of deyen's West Germanic cognates and the unlikelihood of a word for a fundamental concept like \"to die\" being totally unattested make borrowing more likely. The borrowing of -ey- as Early Middle English /eːj/ rather than expected /ɛj/ is probably by analogy with correspondences between /eːj/ and -ey- in inherited vocabulary (such as Middle English teyen:Old Norse teygja); similarly, the weak conjugation has been modelled on wreyen:wreyde. Northern forms such as deghe, dieghe are probably yet another instance of analogy (to forms like wreghe for wreyen).",
