1. verdure, vegetation

From Proto-Indo-European *dʰl̥h₁rós, from which is also Ancient Greek θαλερός (thalerós, “blooming”), and possibly Sanskrit धीर (dhīra, “steady, brave, energetic, resolute”), ultimately from the root *dʰelh₁- (“to come out, sprout, grow, bloom; to become green; shoot, vegetation, herb”). Further cognates include Ancient Greek θάλλω (thállō), θαλλός (thallós, “green twig”), Albanian dal (“to sprout”), Welsh dalen (“leaf”), Middle Irish duille (“leaf”). Probably related to դալուկն (dalukn), դեղ (deł).
