Delta is a Latin word.
'Delta' is the Classical Greek capital letter 'D'. It is shaped as a triangle on its point. A vertical line, as in the modern letter 'D'. Then two angled lines, one from the top and the other from the bottom, extended to the right, to meet at a point to the right of the vertical line and half way between the top and bottom. The word 'Delta' comes from this letter and refers to the shape, on a map, of a river's estuary. The River Nile in Egypt is the classic example.
