Justification:
Slavic, Germanic, and Italic lexemes continuing PIE *dʰeh₁- 'to put, place, to set up; to do' (LIV² 136-138; ESSJa 4:231-232; 5:7-8, Derksen 2008:102-103, Seebold 1970:157-160, Kroonen 2013:98, Ernout & Meillet 1985:209-213, de Vaan 2008:198-199, Meyer-Lübke 1935:271-272 no. 3128). The Italic forms in this class are generally agreed to be cognate, although exhibiting an extension *-k- of unclear origin (listed as a separate lemma ?*dʰeh₁k- in LIV² 139).

  • Derksen, Rick: 102-103
    Proto-Slavic *dělati (ESSJa IV 231-232), a denominative of Proto-Slavic *dělo 'work, deed', from PIE *dʰeh₁-l- (cf. Ved. dádhati 'put, place, make', Gk. τίθημι 'put down, ground, create', Lat. fēcī (1.sg.perf.) 'made', OHG tuon 'do').
  • Ernout, Alfred and Meillet, Antoine: 209-213
    S.v. Lat. faciō, to the root *dhē-; the perfect fēcī is comparable to the Greek aorist ἔθηκα like iēcī to Gk. ἧκα.
  • Kroonen, Guus: 98
    S.v. Proto-Germanic *dōn- 'to do', an athematic verb continuing Pre-Gmc. 3.sg. *dʰóh₁-ti, 3.pl. *dʰh₁-énti. Other IE languages have a reduplicated present stem (cf. Skt. dádhati, Gk. τίθημι).
  • Meyer-Lübke, Wilhelm: 271-272
    S.v. 3128 Lat. facere 'tun, machen'.
  • Rix, Helmut: 136-138, 139
    S.v. *dʰeh₁- 'stellen, legen, setzen; herstellen, machen' (IEW 235-9). For Italic cf s.v. ?*dʰeh₁k- 'machen, herstellen' (IEW 236). Generally agreed to be an extension of *dʰeh₁- 'to put, to place, to make, to produce', mainly attested in Italic. The origin of the k-element is unknown.
  • Seebold, Elmar: 157-160
    S.v. Gmc. *dō- 'tun' belonging with certainty to the root *dʰē- (*dʰeə₁-) 'setzen, stellen, legen'.
  • Trubačev, O. N.: 4: 231-232; 5: 7-8
    PS *dělati is derived from *dělo 'work' and ulimately from PIE *dhē-.
  • de Vaan, Michiel: 198-199
    S.v. faciō, -ere 'to make'. Interficere is a compound of faciō, -ere 'to make, to do', from PIE *dʰh₁-k-.
