Talk:كوتك

Related to Persian کوفتن (kōftan, “to beat, strike, thrash, tramp”) and Northern Kurdish kutan (“id”). — This unsigned comment was added by Calak (talk • contribs) at 12:18, 1 October 2020 (UTC).

I wonder whether Persian کودک (kudak) and what is mentioned there related to children is the same word as Arabic كُذِين (kuḏīn, “beetle”) and what is mentioned there, the semantic development being like visible in Ottoman Turkish قونداق (kondak, kundak). @Vahagn Petrosyan.

@Fay Freak: The sense development seems too difficult to me. The Turkish case is not a perfect parallel. --Vahag (talk) 12:05, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
