Usually considered simplex, however there have been multiple attempts at a derivation:
Erdal states that a derivation *kūtur-(“to go mad”) + *-ŕ is plausible,[1] but Tekin states that the reverse is more likely from a phonological standpoint[2] (cf. Turkmenguduramak[3]).
Nişanyan connects it with *kūt(“blessing, luck”), however this is morphologically imporbable.
Räsänen suggests a derivation from *kūt-(“to lose strength”) (cf. Old Uyghurqwt-(“to lose strength”)[4]).
1) Originally only in pronominal declension. 2) The original instrumental, equative, similative & comitative cases have fallen into disuse in many modern Turkic languages. 3) Plurality is disputed in Proto-Turkic.
