Russian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Inherited from Proto-Slavic *degъtь, from Proto-Balto-Slavic *degut(j)as, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰegʷʰ-. Cognate with Slovak decht.
Likely a Baltic borrowing (cf. Lithuanian degùtas : dègti; Latvian deguts (“birch tar”) : degt). Absent in the South Slavic languages. Compare жечь (žečʹ).
Non-Slavic cognates include Ancient Greek θεπτανός (theptanós), Latin foveō (“warm”), Sanskrit दहति (dahati, “burn”).
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun

Usage notes
[edit]In the oblique cases, the г used to be pronounced like х: дёгтя = djóxtja. This pronunciation is now considered dated.
