Etymology

There are two main theories about the origin of this word. Both derived the first syllable from Proto-Baltic *ta-, from Proto-Indo-European *to-, an old pronominal stem, whence also tas ‎(“this”). The second syllable is, according to one theory, from the particle ga and an extra -d (< da). The same particle ga can be found in Lithuanian tàgatės ‎(“thus, like that”) and Old Prussian anga ‎(“or”), and in reduced form in 17th-century arīg (modern arī “too”) and as dz (< *dzi < parallel form *gi) in nedz). An alternative theory, however, derives the second syllable in tagad from gads, now “year” but previously also “time”: from an earlier accusative *tagadi ‎(“this time”) would have come present-day tagad “now.” Cognates include Old Church Slavonic тогда ‎(togda), тъгда ‎(tŭgda), Russian тогда ‎(togdá), Ukrainian тогді ‎(tohdí), тогід ‎(tohid, “last year”), Bulgarian тога ‎(togá), Czech tehdy, dialectal tehda ‎(“then”).^[1]
