TurkishEdit
Etymology 1Edit
Learned borrowing from Ottoman Turkish [script needed] (sav) or from other historic Turkic varieties. The term fell out of use in Turkey in the XVII-th century and was reintroduced during the language reform in order to replace داعيه (dâiye, “incitement, cause, motive”) and ادعا (iddiâ). The last term is still in use, however, see iddia.
Ultimately from Proto-Turkic *sāb.
