Persian[edit]
Etymology[edit]
جوجه (juje) + تیغی (tiği), literally “spiky chicken”, as per folk etymology. But جوجه (juje) probably does not mean chicken or chick here, but is instead altered pronunciation of Classical Persian ژوژه (žuža, “hedgehog”), ultimately from Proto-Iranian *ǰúǰakah (“hedgehog”).
Noun[edit]
جوجهتیغی • (juje-tiği) (plural جوجهتیغیها (juje-tiği-hâ))
