Where this word comes from
From a Vulgar Latin *dadu, of uncertain origin; perhaps of Arabic origin, cf. أَعْدَاد (ʔaʕdād), or alternatively from Latin datum, from datus (“given”), the past participle of dare (“to give”), from Proto-Indo-European *deh₃- (“to lay out, to spread out”). Compare French dé, Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese dado.
