Altaic etymology : Query result

Proto-Altaic: *k`ắsi

Nostratic: Nostratic

Meaning: to cut; piece

Russian meaning: отрезать; кусок

Turkic: *kes-

Mongolian: *kasu-

Tungus-Manchu: *(x)asu-

Korean: *kàsk- / kǝ̀sk-

Japanese: *kínsú

Comments: SKE 103 (Turk.-Kor.; despite TMN 3, 596, Kor. kǝsk- is not a "teleologischer Sternchenform"). Cf. also Nan. (Bik.) kesi- 'to cut out' - with quite inexplicable k- (a borrowing?). Reasons for prenasalization in Jpn. are unclear (perhaps a suffixed form like *k`ắsi-gu-n is reflected).
