бауырһаҡ

Bashkir

Бауырһаҡ

Etymology

From *bagɨrsak (intestines, visceral organs of animals; deep-fried pieces of unleavened dough). Apparently related to *biagɨr (liver).

Presumably, this dish was originally deep-fried in fat melted from sheep visceras, hence the semantic shift.

Cognate with Old Uyghur baγarsuq (intestines, viscera), Turkish bağırsak (intestine); Kazakh бауырсақ (bawırsaq, pieces of deep-fried dough), Kyrgyz боорсок (boorsok), Uzbek boʻgʻirsoq, Tuvan боорзак (boorzak), бовурзак (bovurzak), Southern Altai борсок (borsok, pieces of deep-fried dough), etc.
