тагым

Ket

Etymology

Inherited from Proto-Yeniseian *tʰekʰam (“white”, adjective),[1][2] most likely derived from Proto-Yeniseian *tʰikʰ (“fallen snow”) + Proto-Yeniseian *-aŋ (adjectival suffix) with an (irregular?) umlaut resulting in the change of vocalization.

Alternatively, analyzable as derived from Ket тик (tīk, “fallen snow”).

Pronunciation

  • IPA(key): /⁵takɨm/, [ta˩˧ɣɯm˧˩]

Adjective

тагым (tákɨm)

  1. white

Usage notes

  • Incorrectly given by БСКЯ as takim instead of takɨm, which is an editorial error.
