komak

See also: komák and kómák

Turkish

Etymology

Attested before 1320. From Old Anatolian Turkish [script needed] (ko-, “to put”), from Proto-Turkic *ko- (“to put”).[1] Most likely also the source of konmak (“to be put, settle down”) and koşmak (“to commit, add to”).[2] Starostin thinks it is not related to koymak (“to put”), but rather a merger.
