تاجیک
Persian
Alternative forms
- تاجک (tâjek)
Etymology
Possibly related to تازیک (tâzik), a re-borrowing from (deprecated template usage) [etyl] Old Turkic.
According to W. Henning, from *Tāt-čīk, originally *Tād-čīk.
Popular folk etymology traces the word to Tajik тоҷ (toj, “crown”) (see Arabic تَاج (tāj), from Persian تاج (tâj, “crown”)), but this is false.
