[edit]Etymology
[edit]Of onomatopoeic nature, formed as ga! + *-jati. Continues Proto-Balto-Slavic *gāˀi-, from Proto-Indo-European *g⁽ʷ⁾eH- (“to sing”). Cognate with Sanskrit गायति (gā́yati, “to sing”) and akin to Latvian dziêdât (“to sing”), Lithuanian giedóti (“to sing”)[1]. The Baltic forms are enlarged with *-d⁽ʰ⁾-.
