Proto-Turkic

Alternative reconstructions
  • *kančïk

Etymology

Analyzable as *kaŋ +‎ *-čïk (“diminutive suffix”). Also compared to Proto-Tungusic *kačikān (“puppy”), which probably from an earlier *kaŋčikān. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)

Notes

Possibly not a derivation from *k(i)aŋ (“father”), since the semantic change from ("father") to ("female; female dog") with equipping diminutive suffix seems not that possible. (Can this(+) etymology be sourced?)

  1. bitch (female dog)
    Hyponyms: *ït (“dog”), *köpek (“dog”), *tülki (“fox”), *bȫrü (“wolf”), *kūrt (“wolf”)
