Etymology

[edit]

Schuessler (2014) reconstructs its pronunciation as dɑi-ge / tɑn-ge / ten-ge, the last one being based on Yan Shigu's reading of it as 顛奚 (MC ten hej).

This etymology is missing or incomplete. Please add to it, or discuss it at the Etymology scriptorium.
Particularly: “*dɑi-ge vs. Mongolian тахь (taxʹ, Przewalski's horse)?”
