Conjugation
[edit]Derived terms
[edit]Etymology 2
[edit]Inherited from Ottoman Turkish اوچماق (uçmaq), from Old Anatolian Turkish اوچماق (uçmaq), واچماغ (uçmağ), from Proto-Turkic *uštmag, from Sogdian [script needed] (ʼwštmʼχ, “paradise”). Sogdian borrowing underwent a semantic merge with uçmak (“to fly, rise”), thence the parallels.
Cognate with Kazakh ұжмақ (ūjmaq), Southern Altai учмак (učmak). Compare Turkish behişt.
