Etymology

Cognate with Proto-Germanic *dalą ~ *dalaz n or m (valley), Welsh dôl f (valley), suggesting Proto-Indo-European *dʰól(h₂)os (valley; vault, cavity). Relation with Ancient Greek θόλος (thólos, round building) or borrowing from Germanic is usually rejected.

The adverb was derived from the accusative of the noun.

  1. hole, cavity
  2. ditch, moat
  3. tomb, grave
  4. valley
  5. (South Slavic) riverbed
  6. (North Slavic) bottom (low part of something)
