köken: Inherited from Old French dé, of obscure origin: perhaps from a Vulgar Latin *dadu, itself from Latin dātum, or alternatively of Arabic origin; cf أَعْدَاد (ʔaʕdād). Compare Catalan dau; Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish dado.
köken: Inherited from Old East Slavic кость (kostĭ), from Proto-Slavic *kostь. Compare Latin costa, whence English coast and English costa (“rib-like structure”).
köken: First attested in the Bak Tongsa eonhae (朴通事諺解 / 박통사언해), 1677, as Early Modern Korean 츄사ᄋᆞ (Yale: chyusao). The second element 사ᄋᆞ (Yale: sao) is from Early Mandarin 色兒/色儿 (shǎir, “dice”). The first syllable is probably also from Mandarin, but the source is not immediately clear; 朱 (zhū, “red”) and 酒 (jiǔ, “alcoholic drink”) have been suggested, but the initial consonants do not match.
köken: Contracted from xập xí xập ngầu, probably from Cantonese 十四 (sap6 sei3; thập tứ, “fourteen”) + 十五 (sap6 ng5; thập ngũ, “fifteen”); pronunciation may also have been influenced by Teochew
köken: Borrowed from Ottoman Turkish زار (zar, “die”), from Arabic زَهْر (zahr, “cube, die”).
