Turkish
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Old Anatolian Turkish [script needed] (tay), from Proto-Turkic [Term?]. Cognate with Kazakh тай (tai), Chuvash тиха (tih̬a), тӑйха (tăjh̬a), Azerbaijani dayça.
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]tay (definite accusative tayı, plural taylar)
- colt (horse)
Vietnamese
[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Vietic *siː. Cognate with Tho [Cuối Chăm] siː¹, Thavung ซี.
The relationship between this root and the root represented by Khmer ដៃ (day), Bahnar ti, Juang iti is uncertain. Sora siˀi is likely a post-Proto-Munda development, as other Munda reflexes show /t/.
The "Northern" Austroasiatic branches (Khmuic, Palaungic, Khasian) occasionally show forms with a fricative, affricate, or palatal stop that correspond to *t in the non-Northern branches. Vietic, as a non-"Northern" branch, shows alveolar stop (cf. Khmu [Cuang] caŋ vs. Vietnamese đắng (“bitter”), Mal sam vs. Vietnamese đăm (“right”), possibly Khmu [Cuang] psɨəm vs. Vietnamese đêm (“night”)). Yet here, the "Northern" branches all show /t/ (Khmu [Cuang] tiʔ, Parauk taix, Khasi kti), but Vietic languages uniformly point to *s.
