Etymology
Uncertain. Loaned into Hungarian gyermek (“child”) through Old Bulgar.[1][2] Cognate with Proto-Mongolic *jermegei (“young man”),[1][2] itself probably borrowed from a Turkic source.
A hypothetical Proto-Turkic *yermek ~ *yermük can be reconstructed, however there are seemingly no Common Turkic cognates. Róna-Tas also suggests a connection with Proto-Turkic *yabrïg (“child of an animal”), whence ҫӑвӑр (śăvăr).,[1]
