Etymology

From Old Anatolian Turkish (ögey), from Proto-Turkic *ögey, cognate with Turkish üvey.

In Azerbaijani, non-initial /-g-/ has evolved to /-j-/, whereas in Turkish it has evolved to /-v-/, compare Turkish dövmek vs. Azerbaijani döymək, both from Old Anatolian Turkish (dögmek, to beat); Turkish sövmek vs. Azerbaijani söymək, both from Old Anatolian Turkish (sögmek, to swear). Turkish üvey (step-) therefore demonstrates a regular phonological development, while the Azerbaijani term unexpectedly preserves the intervocalic /-g-/ instead of the expected /-j-/, which would yield *öyey.[1]
