كوستك
Ottoman Turkish
[edit].png)
Etymology
[edit]Inherited from Old Anatolian Turkish كوستك (köstek), from the same root as dialectal Turkish köstemek (“to tie animals on the foot”). [1][2][3] A less accepted theory proposed by Nishanyan instead derives the word from an hypothetical Persian word which derives from the verb کستن (kustan, “to beat”).[4] Cognate with Turkmen kössek. Compare also Karakhanid كُسْرُكْ (kusruk /kösrük/, “hobble, fetter”).
