Etymology
The original spelling is աւձիք (awjikʿ), of uncertain origin, + -ք (-kʿ).
Usually connected with Ancient Greek αὐχήν (aukhḗn, “neck, throat; isthmus”) and ἄμφην (ámphēn, “neck”). The three words may go back to Proto-Indo-European *anǵʰw- or *angʷʰ-. Alternatively, per Martirosyan's tentative suggestion, they may be borrowed from a substrate language.
