Where this word comes from
From Ottoman Turkish اوتورمق (oturmak, “to sit, incubate, live, remain”), from Old Anatolian Turkish [script needed] (otur-, “to sit”), from earlier *oltur-, from Proto-Turkic *ol-tur- (“to sit”), akin to *ol-ur- (“to sit”) both being causative forms of Proto-Turkic *ol- (“to be”). Proto-Turkic *ol(u)-'s relation to Karakhanid [script needed] (olmāq, “to be, become ripe”), and Turkish olmak (“to be, become, happen, exist, be situated”) is not clear, at least the Turkish form is thought to be from Proto-Turkic *bōl- (“to become”). The -/l/- in -/lt/- cluster was lost, compare a similar case in getir- (<*gẹl-tür-).
