Where this word comes from
Internationalism, ultimately from Latin Turcia (“Turkey”), from Byzantine Greek Τουρκίᾱ (Tourkíā, “Turkey”), formed from Τοῦρκος (Toûrkos, “Turk”) and -ίᾱ (-íā, “country-name suffix”). The ethnonym was borrowed from Classical Persian ترک (“Turk”), from Middle Persian twlkʾ (turk, “Turk”), ultimately from Old Turkic 𐱅𐰇𐰼𐰜 (t²ẅr²ẅk², “Turk”), from Proto-Turkic *tür(ü)k (“Turk”), of uncertain further origin. Compare the parallel international forms Danish Tyrkiet, Swedish Turkiet, German Türkei, Dutch Turkije, French Turquie and Turkish Türkiye (“Turkey”).
