Proto-Slavic
Etymology
Likely through some Balkan Romance dialect, from Old Italian giudeo, from Latin iūdaeus.
The secondary meaning giant/mythical person is likely derived from the meaning Jew based on the Biblical tradition that Jews were the "chosen people" by God. Vasmer, nonetheless, presumes a native origin (see dial. Russian жиди (židi)).
