"dios" meaning in Spanish

See dios in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈdjos/, [ˈd̪jos] Forms: dioses [plural], diosa [feminine], diosas [feminine, plural]
Rhymes: -os Etymology: Inherited from Old Spanish dios (cf. Ladino dio), from Latin deus (“god, deity”), from Old Latin deivos (“god, deity”), from Proto-Italic *deiwos (“god, deity”), from Proto-Indo-European *deywós (“god, deity”), from *dyew- (“sky, heaven”). The form is unusual in that it was derived from the Latin nominative instead of the accusative deum. This is probably due to the frequent use of the vocative, for which the nominative form was used in Vulgar Latin. There are similar examples in Old French and Old Occitan, where the word for God may appear in the nominative form regardless of its syntactic function, and in Middle French the forms Dieux and Dieu were used alongside each other. Compare also personal names like the Spanish Carlos, Marcos. Alternatively, or additionally, the word may have been influenced by Ecclesiastical Latin.

  "etymology_text": "Inherited from Old Spanish dios (cf. Ladino dio), from Latin deus (“god, deity”), from Old Latin deivos (“god, deity”), from Proto-Italic *deiwos (“god, deity”), from Proto-Indo-European *deywós (“god, deity”), from *dyew- (“sky, heaven”).\nThe form is unusual in that it was derived from the Latin nominative instead of the accusative deum. This is probably due to the frequent use of the vocative, for which the nominative form was used in Vulgar Latin. There are similar examples in Old French and Old Occitan, where the word for God may appear in the nominative form regardless of its syntactic function, and in Middle French the forms Dieux and Dieu were used alongside each other. Compare also personal names like the Spanish Carlos, Marcos. Alternatively, or additionally, the word may have been influenced by Ecclesiastical Latin.",
