dno

Czech

Etymology

From Proto-Slavic *dъno, *dbъno (bottom), which is probably from Proto-Indo-European *dʰub- or *dʰeub- (*dʰewb-). Cognates are e. g. Lithuanian dùgnas (bottom), Latvian dubens (bottom), German Tief (deep) and English deep. Transposition from Proto-Indo-European *bʰudʰ- to *dʰubʰ- is also possible. Cognates derived from *bʰudʰ- include German Boden, Latin fundus (compare Czech fond), Ancient Greek πυθμήν (puthmḗn), Old Armenian բուն (bun), Sanskrit बुध्न (budhna) (all meaning "bottom", "base").[1]
