teker

See also: Teker

Hungarian

Etymology

Of uncertain origin. Perhaps from a Turkic language. [1] Compare Turkish tekerlek and değirmen which derive from unrecorded Old Turkic tegir- (tegir-, to rotate), a similar form tevür- (tevür-) was attested in Old Uyghur and Kashgari's book, therefore the original verb is thought to be assimilated in Turkic. See Turkish devirmek (to knock over, turn over).
