Turkish

Etymology

From Ottoman Turkish ???? (kaya), ????? (kaya, “rock”), from Proto-Turkic *K(i)aja (“rock, mountain”). Akin to Proto-Mongolic *kada (“rock”) (Mongolian ??? (khad, “large rock, cliff”)) and Proto-Tungusic *kada(r) (“rock”) (Evenki ?????? (kadaga, “rock, cliff”)), however Old Turkic -j- instead of the expected -d- is baffling, EDAL suggests Old Turkic [script needed] (kaya, “rock”) is perhaps a borrowing from some archaic "j-dialect" such as Oghuz, Karluk and Kipchak languages where regular d???j evolution took place. Helimski (1995) suggests a borrowing from Proto-Samoyedic *ko?j? (“mountain”).

Pronunciation

• IPA^(key): [ka?ja]
• Hyphenation: ka?ya

Noun

kaya (definite accusative kayay?, plural kayalar)

1. huge rock; large rock mass
2. rock cliff, rock precipice, palisade
