اورنك
See also: اورنگ
Ottoman Turkish
[edit]Etymology 1
[edit]Perhaps a derivation from *ȫr- / *ör- or some metathesized derivation of *ög- / *ögre-. Compare Kazakh өрнек (örnek), Uzbek o'rnak, Uyghur ئۆرنەك (örnek), Tatar үрнәк (ürnäk) (all from Chagatai?).
According to Budagov, borrowed from Middle Armenian օրինակ (ōrinak), from Old Armenian օրինակ (ōrinak, “example”),[1][2] which is called into question by Sevortyan[3] and rejected by Lewis.[4]
Origin from گورمك (görmek, “to see”) has also been suggested,[5] but such a formation is unusual in Turkic, and the drop of g- would remain unexplained.[2][6]
