titok
Appearance
Hungarian
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Probably from Proto-Ugric *tajɜ-ttɜ- (“to hide, keep something secret”) + -k (noun-forming suffix).[1][2] Related to Northern Mansi тӯйтуӈкв (tūjtuňkv, “to hide, to conceal”). In turn, the Proto-Ugric word may be an early borrowing from Proto-Indo-Iranian (compare Avestan 𐬙𐬁𐬌𐬌𐬎 (tāiiu, “thief”), Sanskrit तायु (tāyu, “thief”)).
