• Bechtholdt, Astrid (2025) “asii”, in Burushaski Hunza Dictionary (Webonary), Dallas, Texas, USA: SIL International, published 2017.

From Proto-Turkic *idi. Accoring to Ayverdi, the word evolved as *idi > اذی (iẕi) > *iyi > *i: > *i:-si ("it's owner") > issi, with the consonants geminating due to the influence of the long vowel. The alternative form اس (is, ıs) is a result of the word being reanalyzed as is-si. Doublet of ایه (iye).
