Sino-Tibetan etymology :

Proto-Sino-Tibetan: *t[i]l
Meaning: egg, testicle
Tibetan: thul egg, testicle
Lushai: til testicles and scrotum, KC *til
Lepcha: a-thol testicle
Comments: STEDT 107-110 *[td]il ~ [td]ul. The word is probably different from *t[u]j, but actively contaminating. The OC form (rather dubious) is related to *t[u]j in STEDT, but it is rather related to t[i]l (if it is related at all). One also wonders if the local root *[n/s]-tow 'egg' reflected in Idu, Qiang and some Lolo languages (STEDT 114-115; note also the "rootlet" *du 'brood, incubate', STEDT 132, reflected only in Tamang and Thakali) does not in fact reflect *t[u]l.

Altaic etymology :

Proto-Altaic: *t`uĺi ( ~ -e)
Meaning: seed, eggs
Russian meaning: семя, яйца
Comments: A Turk.-Tung. isogloss. Mong. töl 'newborn animals' may reflect a merger of this root with a borrowing from Turk. *döl q. v.; but cf. perhaps tulbaɣa(n) (Khalkha tulbān) 'fry of the Siberian salmon', tulu 'Siberian salmon' - which can belong here if the meaning 'salmon fry' was original in Mongolian (with a later development > 'salmon' and consequent formation of the new derivative for 'salmon fry'). altet-prnum,altet-meaning,altet-rusmean,altet-turc,altet-tung,altet-reference,
