Reconstruction:Proto-Turkic/yōn-

This Proto-Turkic entry contains reconstructed terms and roots. As such, the term(s) in this entry are not directly attested, but are hypothesized to have existed based on comparative evidence.

Proto-Turkic

Etymology

Compared to Proto-Mongolic *joma-gul (wooden chips), Proto-Tungusic *ńüŋ- (to make notches, to scrape off, adze (with an axe)). (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)

Notes

  • The final -r- in Yakut is strange. Perhaps en early contamination with *yüŕ- (to peel of skin, to skin), whence also Turkish yüzmek (to skin, to flay).

Verb

*yōn-

  1. (transitive) to adze, plane
