Why is it capitalized? Proto-Turks worshipped geese or what? --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 20:28, 2 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No, Proto-Turks worshipped and had sex with sheep. I think capital K is a conventional notation for "k or q". --Vahag (talk) 08:36, 3 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
No, that is actually because it is unclear whether it is "k or g". Dybo and Starostin considers a secondary /g/ and /d/ when words end with ŕ, ĺ and n based on evidence from Oghuz, but sometimes it is inconsistent --Anylai (talk) 16:24, 18 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
