Etymology

edit

Not found outside of Mongolian proper (including Inner Mongolian dialects).

Probably a corruption or a derivation from the same root as Proto-Mongolic *ütürgen, which itself may be a corruption of Proto-Turkic *ïrtïn. Both of these reconstructions are very problematic, see them for more details.

Compare Mongghul shdigarna, Dongxiang togvon, Bashkir ырҙын (ırźın), Khakas ӱртӱн (ürtün)
