Ottoman Turkish
[edit]Alternative forms
[edit]Etymology
[edit]Uncertain; several hypotheses have been made:
- From Classical Persian کوی (kōy) from Middle Persian [Book Pahlavi needed] (kwd /kōy/, “lane, street”).[1] Compare dialectal Azerbaijani کوی (“village”) in Zanjan and Persian کوی (“lane”).
- From Armenian գյուղ (gyuġ, “village”).[2] Compare the variants كوك (köğ), كوو (köv), still seen in Anatolian dialects.
