Etymology 1

[edit]

Inherited from Common Turkic *apa (ancestor).Kashgari's attempt at tying it with Arabic أَب (ʔab) and Tibetan པ་ཕ (pa pha) are folk etymology based on similar phonology. The meaning "bear" is a result of taboo speech.

Noun

[edit]

اَبا (apā)

  1. father
    Synonym: اَتا (atā)
  2. (Oghuz) mother
    Synonym: اَنا (anā)
  3. (Kipchak) bear
    Synonym: اَذِغْ (aδïğ)

Etymology 2

[edit]

Clauson and Tekin suggest a native Turkic origin, reconstructable to Common Turkic *ōpa.[1] On the other hand, Räsänen, Eren and Nişanyan consider it a borrowing from Middle Mongol ᠣᠪᠤᠭ᠎ᠠ (obug-a, pile, mass; boundary)[2] from ᠣᠪᠤᠶᠢᠬᠤ (obuyiqu, to pile up).[3][4][5]
