The Latin root that means 'day' is die-. The word for 'day' is 'dies'. From it derive the Latin words 'diecula', for 'little day or short time'; and 'Diespiter', as another name for Jupiter. Also from it derive 'diu', 'by day'; 'diurnus' 'belonging to or lasting for a day'; 'dius' 'divine' and 'in the open air or out-of-doors'; 'diutinus' and 'diuturnus' 'lasting a long time'; 'diutius' 'longer'; and 'diuturnitas' 'for a long time'.
