бауырһаҡ

Bashkir

Бауырһаҡ

Etymology

From *bagïrsak (“intestines, visceral organs of animals; deep-fried pieces of unleavened dough”). Apparently related to *biagïr (“liver”).

Presumably, this dish was originally deep-fried in fat melted from sheep visceras, hence the semantic shift.

Cognate with Old Uyghur baγarsuq (“intestines, viscera”), Turkish bağırsak (“intestine”); Kazakh бауырсақ (bauyrsaq, “pieces of deep-fried dough”), Kyrgyz боорсок (boorsok), Southern Altai борсок (borsok, “pieces of deep-fried dough”), Uzbek boʻgʻirsoq, Tuvan боорзак (boorzak), бовурзак (bovurzak), etc.
