Etymology tree Proto-Indo-European *tewtéh₂ Proto-Germanic *þeudō Proto-Indo-European *-iskos Proto-Germanic *-iskaz Proto-Germanic *þiudiskaz Proto-West Germanic *þiudisk Old High German diutisk Middle High German diutsch German deutsch Inherited from Middle High German diutisch, diutsch, tiutsch, from Old High German diutisk (“popular, vernacular”), from Proto-West Germanic *þiudisk, from Proto-Germanic *þiudiskaz (“of the people, popular”), an adjective from Proto-Germanic *þeudō (“people”, whence Old English þeod, Icelandic þjóð), from Proto-Indo-European *tewtéh₂. Cognate with Dutch Duits and Diets, Low German düütsch, English Dutch, Danish tysk, Persian توده (tude, “people, nation”). The spelling teutsch was reinforced (if not triggered) by Latin theodiscus and teutonicus. It was predominant in Early New High German, but died out in the 19th century.
