omuz
Turkish
Etymology
From Ottoman Turkish اوموز (omuz, “shoulder”), from Proto-Turkic *omuŕ (“shoulder”).[1] Akin to Proto-Mongolic *omur- (“collar bone, clavicle”),[2] compare Mongolian омруу (omruu, “clavicle, sternum”). Compare also Proto-Indo-European *h₃émōs (“shoulder”), whence Latin umerus (“shoulder”), Ancient Greek ὦμος (ômos, “shoulder”); perhaps an early interaction with an Indo-European language.
Cognate with Chagatai اوموز (omuz, “shoulder”), Chuvash ӑмӑр (ămăr, “chest, bosom, brisket”), Turkmen omuz (“shoulder”), Uzbek oʻmiz (“shoulder”).
