Etymology 2
[edit]Inherited from Proto-Turkic *āl (“device”). Cognate with Karakhanid آل (āl, “trick, subterfuge”), Mamluk-Kipchak ال (al, “deceit”), Ottoman Turkish آل (al, “trick, trap”).
The word originally had a neutral connotation, used for both 'honorable' and 'dishonorable' methods for war (cf. 𐽰𐽰𐾁 𐽽𐽰𐽱𐽶𐽿 (al čeviš, “war tactics, methods used to win wars”)). Later gained negative connotations in all Turkic languages, including Old Uyghur, although some positive connotations survived.

Derived terms
[edit]Etymology 3
[edit]Inherited from Proto-Turkic *al (“front, prior”) and its inflected form *ald-, seen sporadically in corpus. Cognate with Karakhanid الين (alın, “...in the presence of”) Chagatai الين (alïn, “before, in front of”), Kazakh алда (earlier, before), Tuvan адаанда (adaanda, “under”) and Turkish alt (“under”).
Attested quite rarely in other historic Turkic languages, surviving only in select descendants from Proto-Turkic.
Sense 1 "below" is secondary, superseding the original meaning of "front".
