Proto-Turkic
[edit]Etymology
[edit]There have been a few theories on the derivation:
- Clauson derives from a hypothetical *kań-, however such a verb is not attested.
- Nişanyan instead suggests *kańa- (“to boil; to melt”) + *-k.
- Doerfer suggests a derivation from a hypothetical *kāyïn-, the passive of *kāy- (“to slide”), however this is unlikely on phonological grounds.
