Etymology
From Proto-Baltic *gad-, from Proto-Indo-European *g?od-, o-grade of *g?ed- (“to unify, to match”) (whence also gad?ties, q.v.). The semantic evolution of the term probably went from “matching, appropriate” > “appropriate, determined, specific time (period)” > “(church) holiday” > “sequence of church holidays in a year” > “year”. Since this evolution parallels that of Russian ??? (god), there may also have been Russian influence on the meaning changes of Latvian gads. Cognates include Lithuanian gadýn? (“time, period”) (< Belarusian ???????? (hadzína)), Old Church Slavonic ???? (god?, “suitable time, holiday, year”), Russian, Belarusian ??? (god, “year”), Upper Sorbian hod, hody (“winter holidays”), Czech hod (“church holiday”), Polish gody (“wedding feast, wedding”), Serbo-Croatian g?d (“name day, important holiday”).
