Forms: Old English dæge, Middle English daie, Middle English, 1700s deie, Middle English deye, Middle English–1800s dey, 1800s dai, dei (dialect).

Etymology: Old English dǽge, corresponding to Old Norse deigja, maid, female servant, house-keeper (whence Swedish deja dairy-maid) < Old Germanic *daigjôn, from ablaut-stem of the verb (in Gothic) deigan, daig, dig-un, digan-, to knead; whence Gothic daigs, Old English dág, dáh, dough. The primitive meaning ‘kneader’, ‘maker of bread’, appears in Old English in the first quotation; in Old Norse and in early Middle English we find the wider sense of ‘female servant’, ‘woman employed in a house or farm’. Compare also Old Norse bú-deigja (bú , house, household) and modern Norwegian bu-deia , sæter-deia , agtar-deia . The same word, or a cognate derivative of the same root, is understood to form the second element in Old English hlæfdíge , hlæfdige now lady n. See also dairy n.

Obsolete exc. dialect.

1. A woman having charge of a dairy and things pertaining to it; in early use, also, with the more general sense, female servant, maid-servant.‘Still in living use in parts of Scotland.’ ( N.E.D.)

/deɪ/

Forms: 1600s dye, dij, dei, 1600s–1800s dey,

Etymology: < French dey, Turkish dāī ‘maternal uncle’. Also ‘a friendly title formerly given to middle-aged or old people, esp. among the Janissaries; and hence in Algiers appropriated at length to the commanding officer of that corps’.

The titular appellation of the commanding officer of the Janissaries of Algiers, who, after having for some time shared the supreme power with the pasha or Turkish civil governor, in 1710 deposed the latter, and became sole ruler. There were also deys at Tunis in the 17th cent., and the title is found applied to the governor or pasha of Tripoli.‘The title of dey was not lately used at Algiers: the sovereign was styled pacha and effendi; the Moors called him Baba “Father”’ ( Penny Cycl. 1833).
