Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Apart from δίε `feared' which is rather a thematic root aorist of δέδοικα, δείδω, remain of the active forms only the ἅπ. λεγγ. δίον and ἐνδίεσαν. The forms, except ἐνδίεσαν and the hapax δίενται, can be thematic. As an athematic disyllabic δίε-μαι is found only in these two forms, one has explained them from ἵενται, ἵεσαν. But if one considers them as old (Schwyzer 686, Chantraine Gramm. hom. 1, 293), the thematic forms are innovations. Note that an IE * dih₁- can hardly become διε-. On διερός `quick' s. v. - Skt. dī́yati `fly' is not certain enough. From other languages have been compared OIr. dīan `quick', Latv. diêt `dance' (Pok. 187). S. also δῖνος, δίζημαι, ζητέω.
