Word of Random

god: god: [OE] Similar in form though it may be, and appropriate as the semantic connection would be, god is not etymologically related to good. It probably comes from an Indo-European *ghut-. This may be related to Sanskrit havate and Old Church Slavonic zovetu, both meaning ‘call’, and if so the underlying etymological meaning of god would be ‘that which is invoked’. The English word’s immediate ancestor was prehistoric Germanic *guth-, which also produced German gott, Dutch god, and Swedish and Danish gud.
