сәүкә

Bashkir

Сәүкә

Etymology

Cognate with Tatar чәүкә (çäwkä, “jackdaw”), Karachay-Balkar чаука (çauka, “jackdaw”), Crimean Tatar çavke (“jackdaw”).

Apparently related to Hungarian csóka (“jackdaw”), Chechen човка (čovka, “jackdaw”).

Note the reconstructed Proto-Slavic *čavъka (“jackdaw”). However, Russian does not have (and does not exhibit any traces of) this term, so the above terms could not be borrowed from Russian. More research is needed.
