Usually considered to be simplex, however some theories have been thrown around:
Németh and some other linguists derive it from *āt-(“to take a step”).
Nişanyan suggests a derivation from *ad-(“to separate”), however states that the morphology is not very obvious as there is no deverbal noun forming *-ak suffix.
Hamilton puts forth the possibility of being derived from *yād-(“to spread”).
Sevortyan's attempt at relating it with Proto-Indo-European*h₁ey-(“to go”) and Räsänen's attempt to link it with Korean바닥(badak) are unfounded.
1) Originally used only in pronominal declension. 2) The original instrumental, equative, similative, and comitative cases have fallen into disuse in many modern Turkic languages. 3) Plurality in Proto-Turkic is disputed.
