'Lord, Master, Baron.' The masculine form of 'domina.' < Not to be associated with; 'deus' meaning; 'god.' > Dominus is the Roman title for a lord, or master. Given to those holding higher positions of state or imperial appointment, and to the heads of an estate or baronetcy. The term derives from the Proto-Italic *dom-o/u-no- meaning: "he of the house," referencing back to the Proto-Indo-European root: *dem- meaning: "to build," through domus. - www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/dominus A derivative of Dominus is the word 'Dom', a title widely used for a dominant in BDSM communities; as well as a reference for technical language in computer programming.
