Question for the hive mind...

[dianec42]

What is the meaning of the word "Dhet"?

Someone was claiming it's German for "Great". Obviously false. (I made a remark that "I bet it's something naughty that they don't put in the abridged Langenscheidt's." The response I got was "You have no proof. Shhhh.")

Now I must know!

(Google has not been terribly helpful. So far it seems to be Albanian for "ten" and Thai for "lovely". I'm betting neither of those is the origin of this idiotic guild name.)

Ah, you mean dh3t, surely? :)

It just so happens that I have A Concise Dictionary of Middle Egyptian by Raymond O. Faulkner in my office. Yes, I know I'm strange... :)

Ahem ;)

So it's really that, then? ;)
