Proto-Turkic

Etymology

Nişanyan suggests a derivation from earlier *üwür- or *üyür-, a derivation from the onomatopoeic *ü or *üw (“blowing sound”), which he and Räsänen compare to Turkish üfürmek (“to blow”) and Azerbaijani üfürmək (“to blow”), both from Old Anatolian Turkish اورمك (üvürmek).[1]. An onomatopoeic origin from would also make this root related to Turkish and Turkmen üflemek, Azerbaijani üfləmək, Gagauz üflemää etc.. Räsänen also compares *ör- (“to speak loudly”)[2]

Verb

*ür-

  1. (intransitive) to blow
  2. (intransitive) to bark
