köken: From Middle High German trache, from Old High German trahho, from Proto-West Germanic *drakō, borrowed from Latin dracō. The modern initial d- is influenced by the original Latin, reinforced by dialectal German forms.
köken: From cerf (“deer”) + volant (“flying”, present participle of voler, "to fly"), because it is winged, with mandibles that resemble a deer's antlers.
köken: Inherited from Proto-Slavic *zmьjь. Doublet of змий (zmij), a borrowing from Old Church Slavonic. For the “kite” sense, compare New Latin draco volans (literally “flying dragon”), German Drachen (literally “dragon”), French cerf-volant < Old French serpe volant (literally “flying serpent”).
köken: Inherited from Old Galician-Portuguese dragon, from Latin dracōnem, from Ancient Greek δράκων (drákōn). Cognate with Galician and Spanish dragón and also English drake.
