Perhaps derived from Old Ruthenian москаль (moskalʹ), from Московия (Moskovija), referring to the Grand Duchy of Moscow from the 12th century. Its recent negative association originated from referring to soldiers from the Imperial Russian Army, and later applied to the Soviet Army and Russians in general.

- روسيه و مسقو: We sometimes meet with the words Russiyeh and Mosgkou together, in some of the Eastern authors; by the former we should understand rather Slavonia, and by the latter the Russia of later centuries. The word Mosgkou, the name of the great capital of the country, has for many ages been used as a proper name for all Russia by the Ottomans, the same as Moscovy by some European writers. The word Mosgkowly, i.e. Moscovian, denotes among the Ottomans the Russians in general; and its contraction, namely Moscal was, with many other Turkish words, introduced among the Malo-Russian, or the inhabitants of little Russia, as a proper name for their Northern brethren.
