Comments: VEWT 258, EDT 752, MNT 1697, ЭСТЯ 5, 60-61. Sak. käša- 'belt' may be < Turkic (Bailey 56 expresses doubts as to the phonetic regularity of its derivation from Proto-Iran. *kaša 'armpit'). The vowel may have been long - to judge from Turkm. kīšen 'chain' (which reflects a hybrid form between *kiĺe-n 'fetters', q. v. sub *k`ìĺa, and *keĺč 'belt'). turcet-prnum,turcet-meaning,turcet-rusmean,turcet-atu,turcet-krh,turcet-chv,turcet-krg,turcet-reference,
