Turkish edit

Etymology edit

From Ottoman Turkish یلمق, ییلمق (yılmaq, to quail, be cowed), akin to Chagatai [script needed] (yïlmaq, to fear, creep). If the two are indeed related, the verb can be traced back to Proto-Turkic *yï̄l- (to creep), which is also the source of *yï̄lan (snake). Compare Yakut сыыл (sııl, to creep).

Verb edit

yılmak

  1. (intransitive) to be daunted by; to be intimidated by
