Daube

== German == === Etymology 1 === From Middle High German dūge (13th c.), from Latin duga, doga, from Ancient Greek δοχή (dokhḗ). Cognate with Dutch duig. The form with -b- appears in the 15th century. It may have been influenced by Old French dove, from the same source. However, such influence is not certain. Intervocalic -b- and -g- are pronounced as fricatives or even approximants [β~ʋ], [ɣ~j] in many, chiefly Central German, dialects, which explains sporadic developments -g- → -b- after back rounded vowels. ==== Pronunciation ==== IPA(key): /ˈdaʊ̯bə/ Rhymes: -aʊ̯bə Hyphenation: Dau‧be ==== Noun ==== Daube f (genitive Daube, plural Dauben) stave (of a barrel) Synonym: Fassdaube Synonyms: (archaic) Stab, Tonnenstab, Fassstab ===== Declension ===== ===== Alternative forms ===== Dauge (obsolete) === Etymology 2 === See the main lemma. ==== Pronunciation ==== Like etymology 1 above. ==== Noun ==== Daube f (genitive Daube, plural Dauben) obsolete form of Taube (“dove”) === Etymology 3 === Borrowed from French daube. ==== Pronunciation ==== IPA(key): /ˈdoːbə/, /doːp/ ==== Noun ==== Daube f (genitive Daube, plural Dauben or Daubes) (rare) daube (French stew) === Further reading === “Daube”, in Digitales Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache‎[1] (in German) “Daube” in Deutsches Wörterbuch von Jacob und Wilhelm Grimm, 16 vols., Leipzig 1854–1961. “Daube” in Duden online
