Бесәй

Etymology

[edit]

From the onomatopoeia бес-бес (bes-bes, the sound used to call a cat). Compare Tatar песи (pesi, cat).

Any relation with Common Turkic *mušuq ~ *mišik, from earlier *pïšïk (cat) cannot be satisfactorily made. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • IPA(key): [bɪ̞ˈsæj]
  • Audio:(file)
  • Hyphenation: бе‧сәй
