يوز ارلك

Early Old Oghuz

Etymology

The Turkmen üzärlik in the second item points to a length leading to the Turkmen word ärlik (manliness; bravery). That the first item is also recorded as long in the source points to يُوزْ (yü:z, hundred; face) (ýǖz in Turkmen). If so, a literal translation would mean hundred manliness/bravery as a compound of Proto-Oghuz *yǖz and *ērlik.

Proper noun

يُوزْ اَرْلِكْ (yü:z erlik)

  1. wild rue, Peganum harmala
