In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-

5121 Yedi kardeşThis word is analyzed as yedi lsquosevenrsquo + kardeş lsquobrotherrsquo Thus it has the

This word is also used together with ulduz lsquostarrsquoYėddiġardaš ulduzu Az lsquoPleiadesrsquo (ADIL III 598b)
The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper in the constella-tion of Taurus and early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars10 Perhaps for this reason Yeddiġardaš means lsquothe Pleiadesrsquo in Azerbaijani whereas its counterparts mean lsquothe Great Bearrsquo in the Turkish dialects

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo
Uyg Uumlrker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a 131b) Uumlrkey lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a) Uumlker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UyXL 757b) Huumlke lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 765c) Bash Oumllker lsquo(dial) Little Bearrsquo (BTDH 257b) Tuv Uumlger lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a)46 MEA 333b47 Mitton 2007 271-27248 MEA 333b

Some Star Names in Modern Turkic Languages-II

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a)This word is in the form of Uumllker etc and means lsquoPleiadesrsquo in the other
Turkic languages The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper44 and perhaps this is the reason why Uumlger means lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) and lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a) in Tuvan

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-

meaning lsquothree starsrsquo It is found in Khak (Kyzyl dial)37This word means almost certainly the three pairs of stars (ι and κ λ and μ
ν and ξ) at the sole parts of the Great Bear These three pairs of stars are called 삼태성(三台星 Samtaeseong) in Korean Per se xʷāharān lsquothree stars in the Great Bearrsquo (PED 711a ldquothree sistersrdquo) se duxtar lsquoidrsquo (PED 711a ldquothree daughtersgirlsrdquo)

By the way there are words Uumlccedilkardeş Uumlccedilkardaş (DS XI 4056b) Uumlccedilgardaş (DS XI 4056a 4056b) lsquothree stars in the sky which look as if they are on the corners of a trianglersquo (DS XII 4791a) Uumlccedilkardeş lsquothree stars forming a triangle shape in the skyrsquo (DS XII 4791a) in the dialects of Turkish which are analyzed as uumlccedil lsquothreersquo + kardeşkardaşgardaş lsquobrotherrsquo Thus these words have the literal meaning lsquothree brothersrsquo

Some Star Names in Modern Turkic Languages-II
2014 62 - 2172
In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo
69 UumlgerThis word is found in Tuvan
lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a)This word is in the form of Uumllker etc and means lsquoPleiadesrsquo in the other
Turkic languages The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper44 and perhaps this is the reason why Uumlger means lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) and lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a) in Tuvan

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48

ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo
Uyg Uumlrker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a 131b) Uumlrkey lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a) Uumlker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UyXL 757b) Huumlke lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 765c) Bash Oumllker lsquo(dial) Little Bearrsquo (BTDH 257b) Tuv Uumlger lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a)46 MEA 333b47 Mitton 2007 271-27248 MEA 333b

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a)This word is in the form of Uumllker etc and means lsquoPleiadesrsquo in the other
Turkic languages The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper44 and perhaps this is the reason why Uumlger means lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) and lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a) in Tuvan

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo
Uyg Uumlrker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a 131b) Uumlrkey lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a) Uumlker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UyXL 757b) Huumlke lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 765c) Bash Oumllker lsquo(dial) Little Bearrsquo (BTDH 257b) Tuv Uumlger lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a)46 MEA 333b47 Mitton 2007 271-27248 MEA 333b

6 Kervankıran ldquobreakerkillerdestroyer of a caravanrdquo is found only in the languages of Oghuz group as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo But this word does not mean lsquoVenusrsquo but a different star in Turkmen

In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a)This word is in the form of Uumllker etc and means lsquoPleiadesrsquo in the other
Turkic languages The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper44 and perhaps this is the reason why Uumlger means lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) and lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a) in Tuvan

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo

4 Čoban yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo is also used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in Turkey and its neighboring areas Although Čoban is regarded as the sec-ondary form of Čolpan owing to a false etymology it can be compared with Fr eacutetoile du berger lsquoVenusrsquo (ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo)

Some Star Names in Modern Turkic Languages-II
2014 62 - 2172
In Arabic the Great Bear and the Little Bear are called banāt naʿš aṣ-kubrā ldquothe daughters of the greater bierrdquo and banāt naʿš aṣ-ṣuḡrā ldquothe daughters of the lesser bierrdquo (DMWA 979b) respectively In connection with this Allen (1899) writes as follows
ldquoThe Hebrew word ʿĀsh or ʿAyish in the Book of Job ix 9 and xxxviii 32 supposed to refer to the Square in this constellation [Ursa Major] as a Bier not a Bear was translated ArcturusbySaintJeromeintheVulgate and this wasadoptedintheversionof1611authorizedbyKingJamesrdquo(p422)
ldquoTheHebrewʿĀshorʿAyishisreproducedbyorwasderivedfromtheArabic Banāt Naʿash al Kubrā the Daughters of the Great Bier ie the Mournersmdash the Benenas Benethasch and Beneth As of Chilmead and Christmannusmdash applied to the three stars in the extreme end of the group η beingAlḲāʾidtheChiefOnefromthiscameBayerrsquosEl Keid for the whole constellationrdquo (p 432)
ldquoThe Arabians knew Ursa Minor as Al Dubb al Aṣghar the Lesser Bear mdash Bayerrsquos Dhub Elezguar and Chilmeadrsquos Dub Alasgarmdash although earlier it was even more familiar to them as another Bier and they called the three stars in the tail of our figure Banāt al Naʿash al Ṣughrā the Daughters of the Lesser Bierrdquo (p 449)
In PED 1411b the entry of Arabic loanword naʿš is given as followsldquonaʻsh (vn) Lifting up a bier with a dead body (when empty it is called
sarīr) a litter in which a sick person is carried a catafalque whereon a royal corpse is laid mdashbanāti naʻsh The constellation of the Bear or rather the three stars out of seven which go in front of the other four these being called naʻsh ldquobierrdquo there are two constellations of the name distinguished as kubraacute ldquothe greaterrdquo and ṣughraacute ldquothe lesserrdquordquo

lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a)This word is in the form of Uumllker etc and means lsquoPleiadesrsquo in the other
Turkic languages The Pleiades is a group of stars resembling a little dipper44 and perhaps this is the reason why Uumlger means lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a) and lsquoPleiadesrsquo (TvRSb 443a) in Tuvan

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo
Uyg Uumlrker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a 131b) Uumlrkey lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a) Uumlker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UyXL 757b) Huumlke lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 765c) Bash Oumllker lsquo(dial) Little Bearrsquo (BTDH 257b) Tuv Uumlger lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a)46 MEA 333b47 Mitton 2007 271-27248 MEA 333b

7 Names for lsquothe PleiadesrsquoThe Pleiades is a beautiful group of stars resembling a little dipper45 in
the constellation of Taurus known since earliest records46 In Greek mythol-ogy the Pleiades were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione who were called Alcyone Asterope Celaeno Electra Merope Maia and Taygete These names along with Atlas and Pleione have been given to brighter stars in the cluster47 Though early accounts refer to the Pleiades in terms of seven stars only six are now conspicuous to the unaided eye which raises a theory that one the lost Pleiad has faded48
71 Uumllkerldquouumllker lsquothe constellation of the Pleiadesrsquo Kaş alone gives a second mean-
ing but since most Turkish star names are names of other objects (lsquoblack birdrsquo lsquowhite stallionrsquo etc) used metaph it is possible that this was the orig-inal meaning Siamlg usually as uumllker and the like Forms like uumlrker in some NC and SC languages are a fairly recent corruptionrdquo (ED 143a)
In connection with this name Clauson (1964 363) writes as followsldquoUumllker the Pleiades is one of the commonest of these names [early Turkish
astronomical terms] In one form or another (in Kazakh and Kirghiz as uumlrker) it survives in most modern languages in some side by side with forms of the Arabic word ṯurayyā hellip It seems probable that the word was originally a mil-itary term meaning lsquoambushrsquo and was then used metaphorically for the small group of stars which constitutes the Pleiades hellip The earliest trace that I have found of uumlrker is in Sanglakh 71 r 19 where it is translated lsquothe Pleiadesrsquordquo
Neacutemeth (1968 5-6) regards Uumlrker as the original form and writes about its etymology as follows
ldquoWenn man naumlmlich diese Stellen liest kann man sich des Gedankens nicht erwehren daszlig die Erklaumlrung Bazins zu modifizieren ist der Name uumlrk-er uumllker usw ist nicht mit dem Zeitwort uumlle- rsquoteilenrsquo sondern mit uumlr- rsquobla-
45 Its resemblance to a little dipper seems to be the reason why the following forms of Uumllker have the meaning of lsquoGreat Bearrsquo or lsquoLittle Bearrsquo
Uyg Uumlrker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a 131b) Uumlrkey lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 121a) Uumlker lsquoGreat Bearrsquo (UyXL 757b) Huumlke lsquo(dial) Great Bearrsquo (UjRSb 765c) Bash Oumllker lsquo(dial) Little Bearrsquo (BTDH 257b) Tuv Uumlger lsquoLittle Bearrsquo (TvRSa 427a)46 MEA 333b47 Mitton 2007 271-27248 MEA 333b

6 Kervankıran ldquobreakerkillerdestroyer of a caravanrdquo is found only in the languages of Oghuz group as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo But this word does not mean lsquoVenusrsquo but a different star in Turkmen

4 Čoban yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo is also used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in Turkey and its neighboring areas Although Čoban is regarded as the sec-ondary form of Čolpan owing to a false etymology it can be compared with Fr eacutetoile du berger lsquoVenusrsquo (ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo)

23 The meaning of yaruq yulduziuml in an ode to spring on p 60 of Dīwān Luγāt at-Turk is given as lsquoLichtsternrsquo in Neacutemeth 1968 3 lsquothe shining (al-ṯāqib) starrsquo in ED 963a and lsquoVenusrsquo lt lsquothe star of glamour [correctly gleam]rsquogt in Gyarmati 2003 81 However yaruq is not a noun but an adjective here because this word is analyzed as yaruq lsquobrightrsquo + yulduz lsquorsquo + -iuml lsquopossessive suffix of the third personrsquo and this possessive suffix belongs certainly to the spring Therefore the meaning of this word should be lsquoits bright starrsquo Moreover it is not certain that this word means lsquoVenusrsquo

III ConclusionAs the result of this research it was possible for us to find the following
points1 As is well known yultuz is used as the word for lsquostarrsquo practically in all of
the modern Turkic languages As Clauson (1964) writes this word mean both lsquofixed starrsquo and lsquoplanetrsquo (other than the sun and moon)
2 Various forms with the literal meaning of lsquofull moonrsquo are used as the word for lsquofull moonrsquo practically in all of the modern Turkic languages
3 Čolpan is most widely used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in modern Turkic languages This word means also lsquostarrsquo in several languages It can be accept-ed as a genuine Turkic one or a loanword from an unknown old language
4 Čoban yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo is also used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in Turkey and its neighboring areas Although Čoban is regarded as the sec-ondary form of Čolpan owing to a false etymology it can be compared with Fr eacutetoile du berger lsquoVenusrsquo (ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo)
5 Taŋ yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Taŋ čolpaniuml ldquoVenusthe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Zuumlhre and Venera are also widely used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo
6 Kervankıran ldquobreakerkillerdestroyer of a caravanrdquo is found only in the languages of Oghuz group as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo But this word does not mean lsquoVenusrsquo but a different star in Turkmen
7 Temirqaziumlq ldquoiron stakerdquo ist most widely used as the word for lsquothe Pole Starrsquo in modern Turkic languages
8 Altiumln qaziumlq ldquogold stakerdquo and Qutup yultuzi ldquopole starrdquo are also used as the word for lsquothe Pole Starrsquo in several languages
9 Many words comprised of the number lsquosevenrsquo and a nounsuffix mean lsquothe Great Bearrsquo in the Turkic languages These words must have meant origi-nally the seven bright stars of the Great Bear ie the Big Dipper
10 The words with the literal meaning lsquobig bearrsquo are also widely used as the word for lsquothe Great Bearrsquo

4 Čoban yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo is also used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in Turkey and its neighboring areas Although Čoban is regarded as the sec-ondary form of Čolpan owing to a false etymology it can be compared with Fr eacutetoile du berger lsquoVenusrsquo (ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo)
5 Taŋ yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Taŋ čolpaniuml ldquoVenusthe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Zuumlhre and Venera are also widely used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo
6 Kervankıran ldquobreakerkillerdestroyer of a caravanrdquo is found only in the languages of Oghuz group as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo But this word does not mean lsquoVenusrsquo but a different star in Turkmen

920 siumlldiumls toγlančiumlziumlThe Tuvan word siumlldiumls toγlančiumlziuml lsquometeoritersquo (RTvSa 268b) is analyzed
siumlldiumls lsquostarrsquo + toγlančiuml lsquocrumbs small fragmentsrsquo (lt toγla- lsquoto crumblersquo + -nčiuml lsquosuffix making deverbal nounsrsquo) + -ziuml lsquopossessive suffix of the third personrsquo Thus it has the literal meaning lsquocrumbssmall fragments of a starrsquo

3 Čolpan is most widely used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in modern Turkic languages This word means also lsquostarrsquo in several languages It can be accept-ed as a genuine Turkic one or a loanword from an unknown old language
4 Čoban yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo is also used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo in Turkey and its neighboring areas Although Čoban is regarded as the sec-ondary form of Čolpan owing to a false etymology it can be compared with Fr eacutetoile du berger lsquoVenusrsquo (ldquothe shepherdrsquos starrdquo)
5 Taŋ yiumlldiumlziuml ldquothe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Taŋ čolpaniuml ldquoVenusthe star of dawndaybreakrdquo Zuumlhre and Venera are also widely used as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo
6 Kervankıran ldquobreakerkillerdestroyer of a caravanrdquo is found only in the languages of Oghuz group as the word for lsquoVenusrsquo But this word does not mean lsquoVenusrsquo but a different star in Turkmen

8 Altiumln qaziumlq ldquogold stakerdquo and Qutup yultuzi ldquopole starrdquo are also used as the word for lsquothe Pole Starrsquo in several languages
9 Many words comprised of the number lsquosevenrsquo and a nounsuffix mean lsquothe Great Bearrsquo in the Turkic languages These words must have meant origi-nally the seven bright stars of the Great Bear ie the Big Dipper
10 The words with the literal meaning lsquobig bearrsquo are also widely used as the word for lsquothe Great Bearrsquo
