Usage notes
- In the nominative and accusative neuter, the forms dieses and dies are in general interchangeable, but there is a tendency to prefer one or the other in the following situations:
- In adjectival usage, dieses is generally preferred to dies. So dieses Haus ("this house") is more common than the also correct and synonymic dies Haus.
- In substantival usage, dieses is used to refer to a previously used neuter noun:
- Unser Unternehmen sollte das Gebäude verkaufen. Wir können dieses nicht mehr gebrauchen.
- Our company should sell the building. We cannot make use of it anymore.
- Unser Unternehmen sollte das Gebäude verkaufen. Wir können dieses nicht mehr gebrauchen.
- Dies is used to refer to a preceding context or phrase:
- Unser Unternehmen sollte das Gebäude verkaufen. Dies würde uns viel Geld einbringen.
- Our company should sell the building. This would earn us a lot of money.
- Unser Unternehmen sollte das Gebäude verkaufen. Dies würde uns viel Geld einbringen.
- Dies is also used to refer to something the speaker perceives with the senses (exophoric use, deixis):
- Sieh dir dies mal an! – Have a look at this! (e.g. a newspaper article)
- Dies sind meine Kinder. – These are my children. (regular use of the neuter singular with a copula verb)
- The above habits are mainly true of formal speech and writing. Colloquially, the shorter dies is often preferred, but the pronouns das and es are even more common.

Latin
Etymology
Back-formed from the accusative diem (at a time when the vowel was still long), from Proto-Italic *dj?m, the accusative of *djous, from Proto-Indo-European *dy?ws (“heaven, sky”). The original nominative survives as *di?s in two fossilised phrases: m? di?s fidius (an interjection) and n? di?s tertius (“day before yesterday”, literally “now (is) the third day”). The d in di?s is a puzzle with some suggesting dialect borrowing and others referring to an etymon *diyew- via Lindeman's Law. But note the possible Proto-Italic allophony between -CjV- and -CiV-, which may be the cause for this divergence (See WT:AITC).
Cognate with Ancient Greek ??? (Z?n), Old Armenian ??? (tiw, “daytime”), Old Irish día, Welsh dydd, Polish dzie?, but not English day (q.v.) which is a false cognate. The Italic stem was also the source of Iovis, the genitive of Iuppiter and was generally interchangeable with it in earlier times, still shown by the analogical formation Di?spiter.
Pronunciation
- (Classical) IPA(key): /?di.e?s/, [?d?ie?s?]
- (Ecclesiastical) IPA(key): /?di.es/, [?d?i??s]
Noun
di?s m or f (genitive di??); fifth declension
- A day, particularly:
- A solar or sidereal day of about 24 hours, especially (historical) Roman dates reckoned from one midnight to the next.
- ...ante diem III idus Ianuarias...
- ...the third day before the January ides [i.e., Jan. 11]...
- ...ante diem III idus Ianuarias...
- Daytime: a period of light between sunrise and sunset.
- ...prima diei hora...
- ...the first hour of day [i.e., prime]...
- ...prima diei hora...
- (often in the feminine) A set day: a date, an appointment.
- A solar or sidereal day of about 24 hours, especially (historical) Roman dates reckoned from one midnight to the next.
Usage notes
Dates in the Roman calendar were reckoned according to the calends (kalendae), the nones (n?nae), and the ides (?d?s). The calends of every month was its first day; the nones and ides of most months were their 5th and 13th days; and the nones and ides of the four original 31-day months—M?rtius, M?ius, Qu?nt?lis or I?lius, and Oct?ber—were two days later. January 1st was thus kalendae I?nu?riae or I?nu?ri?. The day preceding any of these three principal days was called its eve (pr?di?). January 12th was thus pr?di? ?d?s I?nu?ri?s or I?nu?ri? (pr. Id. Ian.). All other days of the month were expressed by counting inclusively forward to the next of these three principal days and, in early Latin, this was expressed in the ablative. January 11th was thus di? terti? ante ?d?s I?nu?ri?s or I?nu?ri? (iii Id. Ian.). By the time of classical Latin, however, the ante had moved to the beginning of the expression and it became an accusative absolute: ante diem tertium ?d?s I?nu?ri?s or I?nu?ri? (a.d. iii Id. Ian.). In this form, the date functioned as a single indeclinable noun and could serve as the object of prepositions such as ex and in.
Unlike most fifth-declension nouns, di?s is not exclusively feminine. It was typically masculine, particularly in the plural. It appears as a feminine noun when being personified as a goddess, in some specific dates, in reference to the passing of time, and occasionally in other contexts.
Declension
Fifth-declension noun.
