թշու (tʻšu)

  1. (dialectal, Nor Nakhichevan) hobble (used to fasten together the legs of a horse)
    Synonym: ոտնակապ (otnakap)

Usage notes

Because թշու (tʻšu) is not included in standard references apart from a few dictionaries,[2][3][4][5] and its place of attestation is unknown, it has been treated as a ghost word.[6] It should be recognized as belonging to the Nor Nakhichevan dialect, more properly spelled թշով (tʻšov) and with a derivative թշոնել (tʻšonel, to hobble).[7][8] Hence the closeness to Kipchak Turkic forms rather than to Anatolian Turkish and Azerbaijani.
