Turkish

Etymology

[edit]

From Common Turkic *erdem.[1] While Clauson claims a derivational link to Proto-Turkic *ēr (man, male),[1] Nişanyan rejects this link, despite a Latin parallel between virtus and vir (man).[2] Cognates with Karakhanid اَرْدَمْ (erdem), Tuvan эртем (ertem), Uyghur ئەردەم (erdem).
