Дөгө

Etymology edit

From *dügü (rice), from Proto-Turkic *tüg- (to pound).

In Bashkir, the initial d- and the retention of -g- indicate that this is a loan from an Oghuz or Karluk source; the expected Kypchak reflex should be tüyü (as attested in Nogai тюй (tyuy, millet)). Also consider the related Bashkir verb stem төйөү (töyöw, thresh, pound).

Compare Kumyk дюгю (dügü, rice), Azerbaijani düyü (rice), Turkmen tüwi (rice).
