Etymology

From *tozañ (“dust; pollen; that which disperses in the air”), from Common Turkic *tōzan, from the verbal stem Common Turkic *tōz- (“to disperse in the air; get scattered”), parallel to the noun stem *tōz (“dust”).

Compare to Tatar тузан (tuzan, “dust”), Kazakh тозаң (tozañ, “dust; pollen”), Uzbek to'zon (“dust”), Uyghur توزاڭ (tozang, “dust; pollen”), Turkmen tozan (“dust”).
