Uzbek

See also: uzbek and Użbek

English

Etymology

From Russian узбек (uzbek), from Uzbek oʻzbek. Further etymology is uncertain; possibly from Turkic uz (“genuine”) + Sogdian βγ (/beġ/, “master”); the latter from Proto-Indo-Aryan *bʰagás, from Proto-Indo-Iranian *bʰagás. The first element is often thought to be equivalent to English Oghuz.

Noun

Uzbek (countable and uncountable, plural Uzbeks)

1. (countable) A person from Uzbekistan or of Uzbek descent.
2. (uncountable) The language of Uzbekistan.
