The word entered the English language in the late 19th century. It is derived from the Italian noun diva, a female deity. The plural of the word in English is divas; in Italian, dive. The basic sense of the term is goddess, the feminine of the Latin word divus (Italian divo), someone deified after death, or Latin deus, a god.
