    (compare

    , which indicates the kind of spring rather than a unity of eyes and tears)

Usage notes

Unlike most prepositions, da cannot occur after a verb. It necessarily links two nouns.

The article la does not occur after the preposition da, and this is often mistakenly understood to mean that the quantity introduced by da must be indefinite. However, there is no such restriction, any more than there is with possessive pronouns such as mia 'my', which also do not allow the article. Because of the unity of the two nouns linked by da, only the phrase can be modified by the article, so it must precede the first noun. See the fourth and fifth examples above.

Some Esperanto dictionaries substitute listo de and tuto de for listo da and tuto da. This is an error, an influence of Western languages which do not have an equivalent to da.

German

Etymology

From a merger of three interrelated adverbs: 1.) Middle High German , dār (there, at that place), from Old High German thār, dār, from Proto-Germanic *þar. 2.) Middle High German dar, dare (thither, to that place), from Old High German thara, dara, from an extended form of the former. 3.) Middle High German , duo (then, at that time), from Old High German thō, , duo, from Proto-Germanic *þō.

The three forms were already sometimes intermingled in Old and Middle High German. The eventual loss of the distinction in modern German was reinforced by phonetic mergers in various dialects. Today, the senses of adverbs 1 and 3 are covered by da, while adverb 2 has been chiefly replaced with hin, dahin. The form dar- remains as a variant of da- before vowels and in some compound verbs (like darlegen, darbringen). Adverb 1 and 2 are cognate with Dutch daar, English there, Swedish där. Adverb 3 is cognate with Dutch toen.

Etymology 1

From a Slavic language (e.g. Bulgarian, Serbo-Croatian, Russian; or rather a loan from a Common Slavic before the emergence of distinct modern languages), from Proto-Slavic *da. Cf. also the word's presence in other non-Slavic tongues such as Albanian da, Greek δά (), although very rarely used.

  • Another less likely (and controversial) theory argues that, being such a common and basic word, a borrowing seems unusual (even considering slang) and it perhaps derived originally from the Latin ita, one of several ways to say "thus", "so" or "yes"; it further may have been influenced by the da, also meaning "yes", in the surrounding Slavic languages before reaching its present state (see Sprachbund).[1] See also dacă, which according to this theory derives from ita quod. In some regions, ta is used repeatedly to indicate impatience with someone talking too much or aimlessly, although this is more likely onomatopoetic in origin. Nonetheless, Romanian etymological dictionaries derive da from a Slavic language, which is almost certainly the primary source. [2].

Interjection

Etymology 2
