*idrig

adj

Meaning

  1. tough, hard

Etymology / origin

Although Nişanyan suggests that it comes from the Proto-Turkic *ẹ̄rig by comparing it with Karakhanid اَرِكْ (érig, “lively”), seems unlikely considering the Arghu descendant. Clauson proposes the root *idir-, however it is unattested.

  1. اَرِكْ(xqa)
  2. *ẹ̄rig(trk-pro)
  3. idrig (Proto-Turkic)
  4. Relations: cog, cog
