Etymology

Of uncertain origin. Pokorny suggests a derivation from Proto-Indo-European *tewh₂- (“to swell”),[1] but this is rejected by de Vaan.[2] More recently, Martirosyan suggests a connection to Old Armenian թուրծ (tʻurc, “cheek”), from a Proto-Indo-European *turH-ǵ- (“to swell and become firm”); see the Armenian for more cognates.[3]
