Proto-Turkic

[edit]

Etymology

[edit]

Usually considered simplex, however several proposals have been made:

  1. Eren proposes a verb *bẹ̄ĺči- ("to shake"), however such a verb is unattested.
  2. Sevortjan suggests a derivation from *bēle- (to swaddle), however this poses a morphological and phonological problem as this would've yielded *bēlek instead. He also compares words such as Bashkir бәлләв (bəlləv, swing) and suggests a common *bēl noun, however once again this has phonological and morphological problems.
