Etymology

[edit]

Cognate with *balïk, whence Arghu بَلِقْ (balıq, mud) and Old Turkic 𐰉𐰞𐰃𐰶 (balïq). Nişanyan suggests that *bālïk (fish) is also related, compare *siāŕgan (carp) for semantic development. Sevortjan suggests the root for all of them is *bạl (honey) which he supposes comes from an earlier meaning "viscous liquid". Some of the Kipchak and Siberian reflexes show a metathesis to *balkïč. Some academicians such as Hasan Eren, Nedim Tuna and Yasemin Bulut claim *balkač as the archaic form and reflexes show a metathesis to *balčak and *balčïk. Ananiasz Zajaczkowski suggests *balkčïk.[1]
