      Reconstruction:Proto-Slavic/dybati
Proto-Slavic
    
    Etymology
    
Uncertain. Probably formed as *dyba (“staff, derrick”) + *-ti from 0-grade of Proto-Indo-European *dwe(m)b- (“top”), akin to Proto-Germanic *tuppijô (“to be atop”).
Alternatively, from Proto-Indo-European *dʰewb- (“deep”), related to Proto-Slavic *ďubati (“to peck”), Proto-Germanic *daupijaną (“to immerse”) via uncertain semantic shift.
