Etymology

Related to synonymous Ukrainian сичу́г (syčúh), Belarusian сычу́г (syčúh).

Usually considered a Turkic borrowing and compared to Kipchak suzug (intestines) (Codex Cumanicus), Chagatai (sučuk, stuffed intestines), Ottoman Turkish صوجوق (sucuk, sausage).[1][2] On the other hand, Trubačev considers сычуг (syčug) a native formation from сыти́ть (sytítʹ, to sweeten), typologically comparing German Lab (rennet), Labmagen (rennet-bag) : laben (to refresh with, to enliven by exposing to, to let feast), Ossetian а́хсӕн (áxsæn, rennet-bag; ferment (starter) in making cheese) : а́хсын (áxsyn, to curdle), and noting the ability of the abomasum to secrete an enzyme used in cheese-making.[2]

Compare also Old Armenian շիճուկ (šičuk, whey) and dialectal Turkish cücük, cıcuk, cucuk, çuçuk (ferment (starter) in making curds and cheese).
