Harrowing one’s field and flattening one’s ears: Old Uyghur yapır- and yapırgu

Öz

The Old Uyghur noun yapırgu should probably be translated ‘harrow’ rather than ‘blanket’. The noun seems to survive only in dialects of Modern Uyghur. Its verbal base yapur- is documented both in Old Uyghur and in Karakhanid Turkic, and is still in use in several modern languages in different but related meanings. This paper will discuss these Old Turkic words and their present-day descendants.

Tarlasını tırmıkla sürmek ve kulaklarını geriye yapıştırmak. Eski Uygurca yapır- ve yapırgu sözleri

Öz

Eski Uygurca yapırgu ismi, muhtemelen ‘battaniye’ yerine ‘tapan (tırmık)’ olarak çevrilmelidir. Bu isim, yalnızca Yeni Uygurcanın ağızlarında günümüze ulaşmış gibi görünmektedir. Kökü olan yapur- fiili ise, hem Eski Uygurcada hem de Karahanlı Türkçesinde kayıtlıdır. Bu fiil kökü, çeşitli ama bağlantılı olan anlamlarla birçok modern dilde hâlâ kullanılmaktadır. Bu makalede, bu Eski Türkçe kelimeler ve günümüzdeki karşılıkları ele alınacaktır.
