Yes, I think ‘deṭ’ is better than ‘daiṭ’ for most closely approximating how the word actually sounds. But again, if it’s in the first 5 words, I’d add a 246 with the standard romanization form of daiṭ.

I could not the word in the dictionaries, nor find it vocalized in worldcat, nor on the internet. The word is pronounced as “date” as going out on a date. I have Romanized it as “deyit”.
