Forms: Old English dugað, Old English dugeþ, Old English dugeð, Old English dugheþ (rare), Old English dugoþ, Old English dugoð, Old English dugþ- (inflected form, rare), Old English dugudum (dative plural, transmission error), Old English dugut- (in a compound), Old English duguþ, Old English duguð, early Middle English doȝeþe, early Middle English doweþe, early Middle English duȝden (plural), early Middle English duȝeþe, early Middle English duȝeð, early Middle English duȝeðe, early Middle English duheðe, early Middle English duhȝeðe, early Middle English duhþe, early Middle English duðeðe, early Middle English duweðe, early Middle English ðugede (genitive, probably transmission error), early Middle English ðugeðe (genitive, probably transmission error), Middle English douth, Middle English douthe, Middle English douþe, Middle English duthe, Middle English duþe.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.

Etymology: Cognate with Old Frisian dugethe , dugede (West Frisian deugd ), Old Dutch dugath (Middle Dutch dōghet , dōgede , Dutch deugd ), Middle Low German dȫget , dȫgent , dȫgede , Old High German tugund , tugundi , tugede (Middle High German tugent , tugende , German Tugend ), and further with Old Icelandic dygð , Old Swedish dyghþ (Swedish dygd ), Old Danish dygth (Danish dyd ), all in sense ‘virtue’ < the Germanic base of dow v.¹ + a suffix forming abstract nouns, of uncertain origin (compare -th suffix¹). Compare later dought n., doughtiness n.The details of the suffixation of the Germanic base are not clear, but it is likely that the West Germanic nouns cited above derive from a form originally showing medial -un- before the dental (compare youth n.), while the Scandinavian nouns show medial -i- . (Compare also the West Germanic nouns discussed at doughty adj. and n.). In Old English the word is usually a strong feminine. The early Middle English compounds (douth-king n., douth-knight n., douth-man n. at Compounds, all with medial -e- ) could alternatively be interpreted as showing genitive compounds (compare Old English genitive singular duguþe ). With douthly adv. at Derivatives compare Old English duguþlic of or relating to a tribune, noble (compare -ly suffix¹).
